'If' I've heard right, something called neonicotinoids (sp) are to be

shelves?

Quite a lot will be banned or modified but, in my opinion, that won't
be such a bad thing. I have been gardening without pesticides for
years and I'm quite pleased with the results.

You don't grow 200 acres of rape seed or anything else for a living
do you?

Martin that is a very interesting comparison. When my parents had their
hotel, those who 'sneaked in' the B&B into their homes without the cost of
advertising, staff, rates etc, and were making a killing and thought that
hotel keeping was a bottomless pocket. Some bought small B&B Guest Houses
and realised what it was all about :-(
