    And your dump, like ours, will probably also be closed due to Coronovirus, which was also made in China. I never did believe in globalisation.

    At least China isn't also using the income from all the cheap rubbish they sell to become a military superpower and threaten us with WW3, Oh hang on ......

      A planter! Most of mine are actually the big fish boxes that get washed up or left behind. Recyling is great. There is a wheel barrow here but I cannot push t so this year that too will be a planter. Life is too short and too precious to fret about such things.. Love seeing old rowing boats that have been filled with flowering plants

            Unless you're a tenant and it's organised by your landlord, I'd be on the phone checking if that's a scam.

              A very serious one. Killarney National Park is again on fire. Unspeakable farmers setting gorse fires AGAIN. Illegal after March 1st They were appealed to this year because emergency services are fully engaged with the covid situation but oh no! I lived on the edge of the National Park for years and ever year had to be aware that we might have to evacuate. One year was especially bad and we were literally surrounded by fires on three sides. The damage to wild life and property. see rte ie news.

                That scam was actually listed as such in a news article, so well done. Call the company?

                            Oh for heavens sake. I just got an email telling me my impatiens seeds are on the way. I totally forgot about them. I had made all the soil blocks I thought I would need for cukes and things like that for later next month so thinking I was being efficient, I put all of the supplies, the maker etc away. Now I will need to haul them back out.

                            DOH! :doh:
