Interesting article on the possibilities. NB It doesn't reach the

Dutch local authorities are planning to use steam to kill weeds on
roads and pavements when glyphosate is banned in 2017. Glyphosate will
be banned because "it is bad for the environment". Critics point out
that boiling large quantities of water is also bad for the
environment.

Oh, well, we'll almost certainly have voted against continued membership
of the EU by then, so the ban won't affect us. ;-)

Don't count on it. There are lots and lots of UK citizens, non native, who
will, understandably shout a bit. And the Border Agency will be recruiting.
BIGtime. So will the marriage sites. One last dash.

But, just in case, maybe I should put aside a small stock of glyphosate
concentrate. A few hundred litres should suffice...


For some of us a few litres, surely?
