Moggins, a word of caution. Unless you're using proper seed spuds, you've got more of a chance of your crop getting a viral or fungal infection. So fine for a few in the garden or in pots, but not as good for a serious crop. Failing that, I've got some spare pink fir apple if you send me your details. Chitted and ready to plant.

Thanks Cab, Wilko's have some plastic dustbins for £4 each so I'm thinking I might buy a couple of those and plant my spuds in there. I have pm'd you

And the perfect complement to that would be a good roaster/baker, something perhaps like Duke Of York, of which I have around 12 ready chitted tubers surplus....

I just don't know what to say, I really don't! Everyone on here constantly amazes me with their generosity in every direction. I just don't want to appear to keep taking and giving nothing in return. I think I had better throw a party for my 40th just so I can say thank you to everyone.

I think it's a case of "doth protest too much", Alison . Secret hankering for candles and birthday cake if you ask me.
