    The river Trent is lovely, I know because I have walked on it for 18 years.

      Chickweed is good, especially after you play with the comfrey. Stops the itching!

      One bit of old folklore wisdom says to plant tomatoes when the soil is warm enough to sit on with bare buttocks. In surburban areas, use the back of your wrist. Jackie French

        Some really excellent videos on there. The channel is searchable too so you can hunt down his garlic planting video, his leek planting one is good too.
