    Common house bricks don't stand up to frost and being wet. Either go for paving blocks or if you really want normal looking bricks, engineering bricks.

    You have inspired me to dig out my old Canon 1000D. But looking at the prices of the lens you use has left me putting it back in the cupboard again!! I'll have to start saving the pennies!

    Solved What is this weed, please?

    It's sometimes difficult if you're offered a plant and don't want to be rude to the person, or refuse it etc. I'm finding it easier now that I'm older though!
