  1. Yea may be milder down here, but I left them in the ground covered with straw for two years, then dug them up put them in a big bucket of peat the next year because didn't want to grow them in the same place and they started to shoot in the shed so planted them out they were fine. From seed you get one or two shoots but from the tubers you get four or five really strong shoots. That was three varieties Tenderstar, Firestorm and Moonlight I change to new seed this year Armstrong supposed fantastic taste well the jury is still out on that one didn't think was that much better. Cheers Arry
  2. Have any of you guy ever tried leaving your runner beans in the ground covering with straw and they come up next year. This year I used new seed but I grew the same ones for three years on the trot before that. Cheers Arry

  13. Guys I have a old butchers carving knife and one rivet is missing on one side so I reckoned it was put together originally with Cutlery Compression Rivets. Does any body know where I can buy just a pair in the UK? Seem to be all US sites that sell them. Cheers Arry

  20. 12mm Tibetan bells on ebay about £1.50 for 15 free postage, I have tried smaller ones they are crap. Can't remember which person i bought them off. Cheers Arry
  21. Yea they do a bit mate but some time its worth putting up with. If you had open ground they not needed, most of our work is hedges. Cheers Arry
  22. You are right mate we use 12mm bells the same as on cat collars and are very good, my mate can hear them lovely unfortunately I can't. I have ring in my hears all the time, some 40 years ago now somebody fired a 12 bore next to my ear when out lamping. I think there is still a risk when your doing a hedge with a lot of cover a burrow 100 meters or so long and only 2 handed we will pick and chose till it dies off a bit more. Cheers Arry
  23. Yes mate if theres plenty of cover they will sit out, but its not just that you can't see if you have all the holes covered. Also a risk of losing a ferret slipping up or down through a thick hedge. Cheers Arry
  24. True mate when you see them big bags looks like the grass is always greener etc. But hang in there mate keep knocking on them doors. Struggling to get out here at the moment so much cover had a few the other day the farmer has goats and they eat all the cover out of the hedges, made it a bit easer. But is so mild even hot it was running out of me. Great you got another dog mate. Cheers Arry
