As I negotiated the north circular this morning a voice on the

Are there implications here for the home producer?

Of course. So much for organic gardening.


If you forgot the sarcasm, I apologise for the following:

Fool.

Manure is used by both organic and conventional systems. Salmonella

present in most faeces, including those of wild birds. Which

as the gentle rain from heaven on organic and conventional produce
alike.


Has it perhaps not crossed some minds round here that Franz was just
conceivably not posting without having placed at least the extremity
of his lingual organ in something like the general area of one of the
more buccal regions of his oral anatomy?



Except that Franz has displayed his dislike of all things 'organic'
previously, and so it's not an unreasonable assumption that he's using this
subject to have another dig at organic gardening.
