I may get the dibber out tomorrow. It has been in storage all winter and so will need some some deep cleansing and a jolly good buffing. When in full fettle my dibber is quite the thing.


Many thanks for sharing your seed with me Mucky. I believe many in ED have reason to be similarly grateful. Your generosity in these areas ensures that you have the reputation that you richly deserve.

But how could you let it get in such a state in the first place? I am rather horrified...deep cleansing? A jolly good buffing?

Surely the dirtier the dibber, the greater the coudos? To be worn as a badge of honour? A mark of experience in the world of hole making? In a similar way, in my days in archaeology, experience was shown through the size of one's trowel. My 4 incher was hardly blunted, compared to the size of the one owned by the hardened archaeologist, with his stumpy little tool barely an inch long. Respect!

ROFLMAO, Swagger. We should be leaving that sort of muckiness to Brum and Michael.

Well, we appear to have gone from seeds...to bush...and now weed...


Turning out to be a proper gardener's thread...oh and there was the mention of a Dutch hoe too...and not forgetting the star of the show - Michael Pallywotsitpoo's unclean and unbuffed dibber...

Just back from my allotment, having done half the beds. Two more left to do that are very weedy, but my new hoe has done some sterling work. I have now planted beans, squash, courgettes and broccoli.


I must confess I haven't seen a dibber in quite some time. I just use the handle of my trowel.

    • Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.
    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me. 
    • If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?
    • I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
