Ok. I'm sorry. I'll leave it at that.


I think that if one was to print off all the postings to URG in the
last 10 days between them there would be enough Bull Shit to grow
Rhubarb or anything else in pots for years to come with enough over
foe a good size garden.

Yes. I had rhubarb over our drainage pit in Hatfield Heath and it
grew like mad. When I came here, 22 years ago, there was a small patch
of rhubarb, which gave a reasonable crop every year. When I had been
here a couple of years it died. I still can't believe it. I have no
idea why that happened. No-one had done anything to it and it had
obviously been there for many years. Strangely, the peony next to it
died also. Neither has been replaced.
