MEXICO 70 Football stickers and I remember putting a postcard in the local CO-OP (If I remember correctly) to get swaps to complete my collection. All I recall is Bobby Moore was on the front of the sticker book, not sure if the sticker packs were free or you had to buy them. Around the same time I ...

What do you mean "does anyone remember"? I still use it for the proper purpose, (repairs, I don't knit my own). Mind you, it is harder to find these days, though you can get anything online. Knitted knickers, now that is something I have never seen! I used to leave for school with it hold...

We have just taken up learning how to fire these, as a kid you just got a Y shaped branch added some elastic bands or knicker elastic (does anyone remember that stuff?) and off you went. I never realized how far things had moved on, tubes and bands of all different strengths, lengths and thickness, ...

Things are coming along nicely, chicks seem to know when it is bedtime now and all head to their nightime abode @ 20.00 hrs in the evening so no more having to chase and round them up at night. Now the idiot questions! I leave water in their coop overnight but no food is that the right thing to do? ...

We pulled our first home grown lemon grass tonight to use in a stir fry. After trying to grow it from seed for the last two years and failing abysmally my partner brought four pieces in a packet from a "well known" superstore for 1 GBP on her last visit to England. We placed them in water ...

When checking our perimeter fence today I moved some wall stones and came face to face with a beautiful adder, closest I have been to one but it was not too impressed at being disturbed! Wish I had had my camera to hand, neither of us moved for what seemed like ages before it disappeared through the...

I haven't but it sounds interesting. As bunny nibbled it, I take it that you are growing it outside? We are growing inside as a pot plant. The rabbit lives in the house with a dog crate as a home but has free run during the day to go outside as he pleases. We are currently litter training him but h...

Always willing to try growing new things we were told ginger is easy to grow and once established you will never have to buy it again. Liking the sound of that I went to the fridge, took out a piece, soaked it for 24 hours then buried in a pot of soil just beneath the surface. Lo and behold today (6...

Thanks, I am absolutely rubbish on computers but will give it a go.

Just tried but post just, showed a long line of junk and no pictures so deleted it, as I said, useless on these things!

We are pulling a lot of rhubarb at present mainly it is being frozen but some has been turned into jam (rhubard & raspberry, rhubarb & blackberry soon to try and make rhubarb & ginger) we are thinking of trying to make some wine as well, does anyone have a simple recipe?

Not sure if I should open a new thread so I will apologize to the Initial Poster and request Admin/Mod moves this post if required. Simple question: "Has anyone found a sure fire way of getting rid of moles.......permanently?" Their tunnels and hills have destroyed 80% of our garlic crop a...

Don't want to put you off, but any veg, and probably the grass too won't last long if the hens can get at it. They love scratching. We have experimented planted a herb garden this year, so far the chicks have flatten one thyme bush, they love sitting on top of it, corriander is also a favorite for ...

BUT.. I had to be very careful not to feed the dogs near the chickens because the dogs would defend their food / bone and would 'snap'................... but as I said, even after years of them 'knowing' each other, it was definitely still a risk. (I trusted my dogs, but would not leave them unsupe...

Thanks for replies. Hi Willow, We have split our garden in to two halves @ 1000 square metres each. One area is for for all our fruit, vegetables and grape vines. The other is a grassed area with an experimental herb garden plus a couple of extra vegetable beds as we seem to run out of space every y...
