Well, in one night, the slugs wiped out my entire veggie patch. All I
have left are the parsnips, the tomatoes and the two vines. All the
rest is gone, gone, gone.

The good news however is that the patch at the front of the house
where I have my strawberries and herbs is still intact and hasn't been
eaten at all since I started chucking the orange peels in there.

Sigh, back to the drawing board, I guess I'd best start looking at
eating 4 oranges a day and seeing if I can get any winter crops
sown/planted this year.

Excuse me while I sit in the corner weeping.


My heart goes out to you, that is just how I feel about my cauliflowers,
voratious slubs where you are, that's for sure.

Yeah, they are, and there are loads of them. And since I've decided
not to use poison, I'm going to have to find some other way to deal
with them.

Right, where's that fridge full of oranges again?

Oranges, never heard of that one!!!!!!
