On a beautiful spring day I was giving my citrus trees some trace
element supplement dissolved in water. It was mixed in a large plastic
tub which I was carrying from tree to tree. The handle snapped off, the
tub hit the ground and the contents sprayed straight up and all over me.
No need for iron, zinc, copper, manganese or any other dietary
supplement for me now.


LOL

Glad to hear that you are now losing that pale yellowing betweent he
veins :-))

But those sodding tubs and their sodding handles!!!! They give me the
shits those things do! No way in the world should they be called "Tough
Tubs" given how appallingly weak and pathetically easy they are to break.
I've been using 2 very large black plastic planting pots that once held
trees in them once upon a time. I must have used these pots for at least
15 years to hold all of my garden weeding and they are as good as new.
Those bloody Tough Tubs seem to only last aobut 12 months if that. Last
time I bought one I wrote the date on is so I can check how long it
really does last.

SWMBO tried to cure her Clover & Bindi killer defs the other day. The
sprayer blew up just as she finished pumping it up. Annoyed does not come
close.


:-)) I heard the explosion from here.
