I told Ray about this and he just about fell over laughing! "A fool
and his money......" springs to mind but I bet it happens! The Daily
Telegraph and Crocus are selling 5 'Erika' for £13.

I've often thought that if I dug up some Couch Grass and labelled it with
it's proper name Elymus repens I'd probably sell some.

It's surprising how tough they are. One month ago I transplanted some dozen
'wonderers'.

Bit late to do this, but they're still alive. Whether they fruit, remains to
be seen.

Well, look at the range of other invasive weeds you can buy at any
garden centre!
Meanwhile the government's only just prohibited the sale of three really
disastrous foreign aquatic weeds which are blocking whole rivers and
filling good-sized lakes.

I see some scope for "Pick your own Elymus" signs.


You used to be able to buy bundles of the roots/rhizomes/w.h.y? in
French markets, I believe for goats etc.

I remember buying 10 or 12 raspberry canes for 2/3 in Woolworths but
that was long ago!
I also remember compliaining to a fish and chip man in Penzance that a
cod lot was 2/3 also and only 1/9 at home! That was also in the dim
and distant past!

For the benefit of the youngsters in the group who don't remember pre
decimal days
2/3d is about 11p
1/9d is about 9p

As I knew them when I lived in Hastings, Rock Salmon and Robin Huss
were other names for Dogfish,
The best thing with chips.
