Thank you Alan but I was wrong to discount any work that Martin had
put into his response. *I have spent my working life researching. *It
is very easy for me to do that but I am enjoying the ideas and
friendly discourse here. It is so much nicer to talk. *For example,
when I asked about waiting to plant my potatoes until the shoots had
appeared, Steve was able to tell me that :


"There is disagreement every year about whether it actually achieves
anything anyway"


I probably couldn't have found that by googling. I am able to access
the knowledge and experience of real people here.


Nevertheless, I do apologise to Martin.


Indeed.......I ask questions here even though I know I could Google. Nothing
beats personal knowledge and experience.

Me too, I can Google but the personal experiences and advice of
posters is superior. Martin is always very helpful, he will advise
and also direct me/us to a site to back it up. We have the best of
both worlds with him. Sometimes the written word can come over a bit
abrupt but I know that O and Martin understood and no offence was
taken on either side. Now young Pete, did you put in those C.Lucifer?
