most delicious crop in builders buckets outside my back door, so
what's so bloody difficult?
And don't get me started about apples......

The one that I can never find tasting any good now is the radish. When

They are dead easy to grow. Clear a bit of ground and put the seed in.

Water in and wait a while. More appropriate to urg but sort of DIY.

Hmm.. excellent slug/snail food. Not sure which group that fits.

I were little, they had a lovely 'bite', now they taste of nothing.
We find McCain's chips to be very good, certainly much better than the
local chippy's.

Find a better less local chippy then!
