Yes I am indeed lazy. My laziness is caused by the general
decrepitude
associated with having lived for as near as dammit eighty years.
You are singularly lacking in imagination.

He also has a crap memory, perhaps he is prematurely old too? :-)
It's can't be more than a couple of days at the most since you
mentioned that you had been gardening for 70 years.

martin shame on you.


Mea culpa! I am not so young myself, but did remember being impressed
by Franz's age.

I sailed with somebody, when he was in eighties. He carried on sailing
until he was 95.
You are as old as you feel.

Its certainly an interesting idea.. Why not give it a try and let us
know the results.. Both types of worm are availble by mail order.
Dendrbaena worms are available also from fishing shops (as bait)

Thanks for the information, Jim. If I knew where to get the earthworms, I
will order some. Or maybe there are enough in my garden for starting things
up. I will do a bit of investigating.

I will take a look around and see if I have that supplier that sells the
'earthworm' top ups.. But as you say, you should have worms in the soil
already.. Feed the soil with plenty of organic matter and don;t use
chems on it and you will be feeding the worms and creating a aparadise
for them and they will 'multiply and be fruitful' as it were!-)

I'll wish you some premature good wishes, since my memory cannot cope with a
time lapse of 1 month any more.

I sailed with somebody, when he was in eighties. He carried on sailing
until he was 95.
You are as old as you feel.

Parts of me feel older than other parts, so I must have a complex feeling,
but my mind is getting too close to senility for me to translate that
feeling into years.
