Its quiet scary how much prices have gone up in the last two years, my wife is always telling me of increases,..and its not the luxury goods either, its the everyday bread and butter items,... how some of our older people are going to survive I dont know,... I think some may not

Well, spuds, I have not bought for years. Onions, not bought for years, but due to the poor summer amongst other things, have had to buy in - £2.50 for 22lbs of onions. Carrots I grow a few, but can still get sacks of them cheap. Winter greens - cabbages, kale, sprouts I got nailed by the rain and slugs. NAILED.

Own fault. Should have burned the bottoms out of the hedges, didn't and was inundated with slugs. Also, was working the plot next to mine last year so it was clear, it got new tenants this year that have let it go while so it is a slug haven. Will burn the bloody hedges dry in the spring.

Also going to take everyones green waste in the area the council normally collects twice a month spring summer and autumn, put it through shredder and mulch to help keep the slugs off.

NEVER AGAIN.
