The corpses of slugs and snails litter the veggie patch. The lettuce leaves were intact so wondered if the roots had been got at - the plants wilted despite being watered. This is my first proper veg patch year but I have strawberries which DD, a strawberry addict, has been instructed not to eat, in my border where I also grow mint (in a little 'pen') rhubarb and blackcurrants - I have 'useful' plants in the back and save the flowers for the front.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson
