    So far Greenland hasn’t had any threats at all from China or Russia, but has certainly had plenty from the Dictator in the White House. All parroted by his selected henchmen, carefully selected for their blind allegiance, rather than any semblance of intelligence or ability to run a country. Tragic.

    Best supplier of compost 2026

    I use Clover, as @hailbopp suggested. It has peat in it. At the moment it's sold by 2 garden centres fairly local to me in South Norfolk. I'm happy with it.

    Portuguese Laurels problem

    Just one further thought @Selwynha, if you plan to dig up one of the plants to investigate, wait for the temperature to improve to avoid any further damage.
