great ideas for labeling plants. I like the tile one for permanent planting, I bought some of the copper T shaped ones last year, but they've still managed to move from the plants

An old chap (gone now) once told me that anything in the soil will always work it's way to the surface. He didn't say why but in my case the Magpies help the process.

I did get an offer of some very quickly but with no car it was a bit too far away.

Another one rescued from the old forum

No1 son bought a new window blind and it needed shortening, the spare latts make nice labels (sky blue this time)

The best idea ever Steve

I was delighted to get several old blinds from a neighbour recently. Got some blisters as well now

Good job done to both of you. It must feel like a shop Ladybird.

Well actually I have more Ron, ( not economical to post or you could all have some) it was the blisters that stoped play.

I also was given one of those little wooden pot makers. Like any addiction it all begins with the first one , so I shan`t start untill I have plenty of time ;D
