    sober camping

    No it's not clear at all the person with a problem with people who drink alcohol is clearly the OP and NOT you, you just appear to have a problem with me as I have a drink 'every day'! Please see PM Toddy! Si

    sober camping

    Agree with everything you said there NetFrog. Would be nice to be able to have a glass of wine with dinner without having to 'admit to drinking daily' like some alcoholic (even though a very large percentage of Europeans also like a glass of wine with their dinner), and being accused of having...

    sober camping

    Oh dear you've definately got a downer on alcohol! I walk through my town quite often of a night during the weekend, it's a seaside town and all I normally see are people having a good laugh and a great time, of course you get the muppets on a weekend binge or stag weekender, can tell them a...

    sober camping

    +1 for that John. Why do people seem to think "drinking" or "having a drink", means getting drunk or being unable to enjoy surroundings??? I mean, really??? I drink wine with every evening meal and always have done, if it's hot outside I'll sit in the sun and have a cold beer or two, I...

    The Ultimate "What is this Fungi?" thread.

    Anyone know what kind of mushroomsi these are please? Found them, spookily enough, growing in one of my grow bags for the tomatoes? I've got loads of other bags of the same type and no other shrooms anywhere, quite strange. If better quality pics are needed I'll break out the...

(Even underground when I'm exploring). Skill, inbuilt awareness, supersense, whatever, I...

    OT growing veg

    xylaria have you tried the F1 varieties? Thompson & Morgan have a few blight resitant strains as do most other sellers I suspect. Ferline, Fantasio, Legend, all worth a go, there's a list HERE of some more varieties. I don't suffer from blight here, (touch wood), but my GH is pretty small so I...

    OT growing veg

    TBH I never really take any notice of what type they are, I grow both determinate and indeterminate and apart from pinching out the side shoots (45 deg shoots between truss and main stem) I let em get on with it, if they get too tall (over 6ft) I'll pinch the top out to stop them. Currently...
