    Cow & Gate Friends Peas, Sweetcorn & Potato Discoverer 6mth+ (100g)95p/Any 6 for £4.00 50p

    I managed to find, from across 15 different stores, all four of the Cow & Gate Friends 190g and all four of the Cow & Gate Friends 130g products - generally one in a single store. Those fifteen stores left me, however, with just one of the Cow & Gate Friends 100g products - there are four in A on msm. I've now found two further ones last Wednesday - from a different set of stores that weren't in the original 15 but still not found one of them (Cauliflower, Potato & Cheese Discoverer). I now believe that it's highly likely that M does have all of them, at one or another store, like it clearly, at some place or another, has, in total, across its stores, all four of 190g and all four of 130g. I believe they have all (certainly three of the 100g but I believe very likely all), and are all, on RTC and it just depends on which of the RTC products has happened to sell out completely in the stores I've visited.

    I'm very confident that M will have the remaining 100g product somewhere - I reckon they've all been stocked by M, all have gone onto RTC but this one of them has cleared out completely from all stores I've visited - it'll very probably be somewhere else in M in a place where it just happens not to have sold out from (where the other three versions, that I have found from different stores, have probably sold out instead). However, from my use of now 20 stores, I still have not found this one.

    We planted a few out before we went away. Ours seem to be the only ones with flowers on so far :eek: gooseberries are more or less ready but I've left them on there for now because I don't have the time or knowledge as to what to do with them that isn't alcohol based!

    My strawbs aren't lasting long either :( I've just chopped up another kilos worth for jam and I suspect I'll be doing another lot too. The last stuff is nice but it's set too hard :(

    Glad the bags have come in handy - I've got it in mind still to pick you up some more but I haven't been near a shop for ages

    I had to pull up nearly all the garlic at both plots because of rust. I've disposed of the leaves and the bulbs are in the greenhouse drying out. I missed the boat on peas and broad beans this year :( xx

    Thanks about the bags as will need more.:A

    My broad beans started to get rust (from a neighbours garlic, I think) so had to pick (and pod!) them all and dispose of the rest of the plants. They can't go into the compost bin because the spores may infect next year. Last year they got black-fly so didn't have any. These ones were autumn planted and have been very heavy cropping.:T:T Used the new 'Terrain' peas and they are very prolific and can be planted up till the end of July for a November cropping. T&M online -99p a pack, so still time to plant them.
