    I got some comfrey liquid on my hands this morning and can't shift the smell now :s

    I wonder if the stinky hand diet would work.
    Hands so stinky, you don't want to put them near your mouth.

    Sadly that is what sundae spoons and toasting forks are for  :D

    I put my hand down on the top of my dry stone wall to steady myself while I reached over to pull out a weed but as I leant forward and put my weight on it I had a bit of a funny feeling under my palm, I grabbed the weed, leaned back and found I'd put my hand on top of a red ant nest  :#  Luckily I was wearing my free Gardener's World gloves and I escaped bite free. We've never had red ants in the garden before too so another one to add to the species list :)

    Like we haven't got enough problems, lets go and see if we can find any Martian bugs.

    Ive been reading about the sad demise of the Argos catalogue. . I understand the pain. My daughter, from the age of one,onwards, refused to go to bed without the Mothercare catalogue. She called it 'the babies'. She would often wake up with the imprint of 'the babies' on exposed body parts - usually her face. Bedtime reading was leafing through the very dog eared catalogue.

    I used to spend hours going through the argos catalogue...

    I recently got used to circling what I wanted and tearing the page out. In that way, OH couldn't come back with the wrong thing. I suppose I 'll just have to go myself or order it on line now.
