    Right, I *am* going to do the banking this morning - right now, in fact. And yesterday I filled a whole black bin bag with bramble cuttings :( I might do that later on today too :o

    Hope everyone has a good day :)

    I've just finished the banking :j Although no gardening for me - we're away tonight so I want to at least do the dishes and my fridge is filling up with water again so needs some investigation - sigh. Nice day though, hope you get chance to have a sit down too!

    :wave: afternoon all :wave:

    Banking done, Boots Advantage card souped up (cos I'm Awfully Old now, I get x 3 the points on Boots own brand stuff :rotfl:). Lots of sitting around done too.

    SHS, I don't know if Roundup works on brambles - it needs leaf area, I think, to be ingested by the plant, so it *should* work. I don't think I want that much Roundup in my garden though - I use it on individual plants, mostly the big sedge, but I'm pretty sure it contains proven carcinogenics, I'm not going to splash it about more than absolutely necessary.

    Quite rainy out there right now, so I shan't be doing anything in any case - that's why I'm on here right now :D

    Parish council used to spray it against our garden wall. We have a well. We had words.
    Think it breaks down to harmless stuff pretty fast though.

    That's good!

    And ooh, you have a well! I'm not envious. Of course not. Perish the thought.

    Envy! :)

    Don't believe everything you read. The waters are very muddy with this and other things. No wonder science is currently in crisis.

    But it could be worse: It could be psychology... :rotfl:

    :eek::eek::eek: Those are scary ....

    And as for psychology :rotfl: you just *know* why I'm retiring, don't you :rotfl:


    Right, I'm not a psycho-anything now, I'm a writer. Going off to do my outline. Sort of.
