    Later in the year you can plant some garlic bulbs if you like garlic. The bulbs cost a bit initially but there on after you can just plant the bigger ones you harvest. Seems quite an easy thing to grow as well

    Its working as a team the little fella down below duking it out waiting for you to get there. You can't let him down where ever there might be so it must be a heart breaker to lose one. Closest I came forgot to lead mine up one day as we passed a big earth where a dog had been lost and he disappeared down it as there must have been a bit of scent about thank god it wasn't at home and he came back out. I dived on the little bugger when he came out lol

    yea just read this so maybe your right Don't be tempted to touch anything on a roadside, or even near a road, there are a number of really serious (and painful) conditions you could end up with. In addition, a number of these poisons are acclumative, i.e. they lie in fatty tissues and you do not really notice the effects until the toxicity reaches a certain level in the body. In some other cases, there is no cure and/or any damage done is irreversible. Just in case you were wondering: Roadside foods can contain: Lead: This is absorbed through soft fruit skins: interferes with the normal

    They are hopping about every where till the end of the summer then they get knocked back plus if you wait for the cover to die back they will be breeding again by the time that happens

    My dog seems to find a rabbit no matter where we go so might start taking the ferret with me early at weekends while its cool. Just have a little dabble. I call one rabbit a success so it don't take much to give me a bit of sport
