Delurk with chocolates and a question
Over the past year, reading URG has made it possible for me to get a
grip on the garden that goes with our house (an established garden that had been neglected for a few years), and I am proud to say that all the reading material on here has contributed to my now sprouting carrots, parsnips, peas, cauliflower, lettuce, spinach and sprouts. And the potatoes are chitting away as we speak. It has also made it possible for me to get to grips with the necessary maintenance and to get things sorted. The penultimate project is the garden pond. We recently discovered the natural waterinlet for it (from a stream) and overflow and have now been able to reestablish the waterflow into and out of the pond. I have drastically reduced the growth in the pond, and the water is clearing up by the day. It is inundated with tadpoles, which I enjoy watching greatly. I would like to add some fish to this pond, preferably of the type that will keep the plant growth down, but will leave the tadpoles in peace. Can anyone point my nose in the right direction for the type of fish that I would need for my pond, and whereabouts in North Wales I might be able to get them? Oh, I hope everyone likes Belgian chocolates, I've put them on the bench overthere ggg "My candle burns at both ends; it will not last the night but ah my foes and oh my friends -- it gives a lovely light" |
