When a friend sent me this link, I was sure it had to be a wind-up. However, now I'm not so sure.

Stoke Newington Florist sells sticks for up to £18.

Has the world gone completely mad?

I'm speechless!!

I have copious amounts of air ( fresh ) available, discount for quantity , bring your own bag to avoid the 5p bag tax.

I have nettles, dockens and ragwort available at very reasonable rates when in season.

Nettles are known to make lovely herbal tea or cordial, and I'm sure there is some kind of undiscovered therapeutic benefit to docken root, while ragwort flowers would look lovely in a floral arrangement..   Pick your own!

Talking about air did anyone see that programme on C4 with Jon Richardson about the things he was scared of? The bit on air pollution showed him meeting a family who take pond dipping nets lined with a plastic bag up on a hilltop and "catch" the fresh air and seal it in Kilner jars and sell them for some ridiculous amount. Makes the sticks look like a bargain

There is already a market for dandelion and burdock, just sell the raw ingredients to health freaks.

Who remembers Reginald Perrin's 'Grot Shops' ?

Those are some beautiful, quality sticks, wish I could get some like that in a shop round here.

Omitting the ragwirt of course!  I must admit that this thread has made me chuckle rather

I have got plenty of straw carefully selected from the barn and placed in my socks by the straw fairy. With that magic must be worth oooh, £22.95.
