  4. Sorry for farting It squeesed from my bum Down the leg of my trousers And out with a musical hum! LOL Knifebar
  5. Feck me, thats unbelievable , I have made these traps and know how much it takes in time and effort. If I was near you I would help you make a newone. Hope you catch them at it and prosecute them for criminal damage . (Your trap was made brilliantly.) Knifebar.
  6. I have alot of swallows around my house and they're great until now. The dirty little feckers have started building in the eves and they're ruining my house with muck. B******D's will not stop and I don't know how to stop them. Can someone point me in the right direction to stopping this birds. Knifebar.
  7. Thats a fine patch fishfish, I particularly like the netting for the birds. i have aserious infestation of cabbage root fly and no way to stop it. Maybe next year I shall be properly prepared for this with .08mm fly mesh covering. Good job knifebar
  8. Funny enough he's well bred and the fellow who gave him to me said he was a kelpie but I don'nt know what that means. Knifebar
  9. Have a pet collie dog but he does strange things. He sleeps in the rain, lies out in the frost and worst of all he will dig a hole and lie in it instead of sleeping in dog box. He never stops digging holes to sleep in. Espically in bad or hot weather. Any ideas Knifebar
  10. Seedlings do cost alot of money but you can grow from seed in a poly tunnel or green house and this should start them quicker. If you want todo this with peas get pea sacks as peas don't like their roots disturbed. (You plant sack with peas plant in it). Carrots and parsnips don't transplant that well either. good luck Knifebar
  11. To be honest I use a long length of timber or a line and plant along. Its looks tidy when done like this. Knifebar
  12. Brilliant, you need to water the veggies in the tunnel every day. Altough you can put you hose on a timer if you can't vusut every day. Knifebar
  13. Best ting to do is spray with Round-up, then in 3 weeks time clear away all debris, dig and turn the soil well, then get some farmyard manure dig in and then plant some cabbages for the back end of the season. Knifebar
  14. First Picture is Queens early potatoes and second is onions each side of carrots (Early Nantes). In the distance I of second picture is the remander of early cabbages but along side I have purple srouting broccolli, cauliflowers and burssels sprouts. I also have peas, beans, lettuce, scallions, celery, leaks and strawberrys, the camera lost power but when I get batteries I shall post more pictures for you. It was a lot of work making the fence etc, damed rabbits, need a .22lr with night vision. Altought it it worth it, there is alot of work yet to be done, not just finished yet with
  15. Once you get your path in place, on more trouble plus if you split your patch into three seperates areas you can use crop rotation to cut down on disease, ie, cabbages following beans etc. Knifebar
  16. The wins or gorse can be treated to a good helping of Garlon 2, which sorts them out big time. Knifebar
  17. The path is made of old paving flags (squares of sand and cement) but what you can do is dig out a path line each side with 6"x2" timber, in the path way you can lay plastic sheeting and then put 3" of sand and cement mix and rub the top with a floating trowel to get a nice surface. Using brick paving can be very time consuming but it looks nice until they turn green and then the weeds and soils gets between the joints. In wet weather cabbages will do well along with lettuces.

  22. Yes my trap went a bit stale also, what I did was, I moved the trap 200 meteres to the corner of the field and I also put chicken pellets on top and around the trap and in the trap and next morning had two, also I keep changing the call birds and this helps. Knifebar
