  1. I wonder if dog share's will catch on, who gets to cook it? Some irony there, people chewing on a pitbull.
  2. They have the nicest flavour and the thinest of skins, so ideal for the home grower and I have never found them for sale commercially, only as seeds or young plants.
  3. I purchased a bag of 'gardeners delight' tomato seed and planted them in compost, so in a few weeks from now I shall be offering some tomato plants for sale, watch this space.

  5. Have you been smoking some of that there 'zany' HonaloochieB? Whatever it is you're on, we want some!:)
  6. My daughter found the most useful part was travelling alone. She found out that unless she made an effort she would not meet anyone, being alone meant she had to do it. When she arrived at uni' she found she could mingle much better and with more confidence with the people she met which put her ahead of the game in 'networking'. She felt it was the most valuable trip she has made so far.
  7. Cameras might be useful if there is to be an improvement in background lighting.
  8. May your first born child be normal and complete and of either gender.
  9. I would not give my children money to travel with, if they want to go anywhere get the money yourself and go, but do not expect hand outs to enable it to happen, do it yourself or go with out is my view.
  10. Mr and Mrs floatingally-onioncat, slides straight off the tongue. Good for you.

I agree, though Sean is not normally as short tempered as this he is generally a well balanced and mild mannered poster. It is not a criticism I just don't know how good these "experiences" are. My youngest daughter took off on one of these treks with the intention of meeting up with around 8 others. When she arrived 4 were about to leave to go in another direction, 2 others went off to stay on a relative's farm, which left her and one other. That one lost one of her credit cards after a week or so leaving her short of money, which meant my daughter had to bail her out for a few weeks by lending her enough to get by, even so she ended her trek a few weeks early leaving my daughter travelling alone through fiji and Oz which she was concerned about. When she contacted me I suggested she stuck with the programme until she felt she could no longer stand it, then jump on a flight home. She met up with some others travelling on the same route and continued to finish the fiji and Oz trip. She then went on to meet up with other friends in Thailand. This went well until one ran out of money and so she helped her out financially over the following fortnight so she could complete the trek together. My daughter has become much more self confident and tends to take things more in her stride since her return. The parents of the young ladies she helped repaid her in full and were eternally grateful for the help and assistance my daughter gave their offspring. Whether the two grand spent on this trip was worthwhile you will have to judge for your self, but I thought it was an excellent lesson in coping skills and you always pay for experience. I should point out that my daughter self financed this trip by working during her school holidays and weekends for a year or so before the trek. I hope this post is useful.
  12. A pair of blue tits have been exploring a box in the garden today, so now is the time to fix your bird boxes up on a wall facing north-ish so it doesn't cook the fledglings in the sun.
  13. Best low priced cup of coffee, dulwich cafe Lordship lane.
  14. He looks as if he has dog snot down his front......
  15. quietly spoken ex-wetback with mastiff.:)
  16. Is this thread in the right place admin?

  18. Ask her for the description so we can look out for this oddity.
  19. Lunch might be an apple sliced very thinly through the skin and the core and eating slowly is assisted by how many slices you can obtain from your apple,or cucumber and then you eat all, skin and core. Low fat yoghurt eaten with a small spoon will e.x.t.e.n.d eating time.
  20. Which should be tattooed on their tongues!
  21. All of it 20 mph or all of it 30 mph not a dual speed road it's far too complicated and there will be braking and revving continuously at that junction it's not fuel efficient.
