I need some plastic sheeting that will stop weeds coming through the soil as I want to put bark down. Any recommendations ?

I got some from B&M and put it down double but i'm still getting weeds coming through, so i'd tick that one off your list.Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

I would go with the geotextile stuff instead of plastic.
The stuff they use under ponds is brilliant, and lets water through as well.
You can cut it with a stanley knife if you wish to plant something underneath.0 -

also called permatex. (will probably see it labeled as ground control in garden centres)
Its a woven plastic type, generally it has squares marked onto it to help us space plants out in our greenhouses. It is good for 8-10 years.0
