margerine tub of nettle seedlings planted as sunflower seeds but came up as nettles. Start your own nettle patch :-J
Do you think I should offer them on ebay?
-
You never know. There may be some wealthy continental taker ;D :-J
If you get a good franchise I can cover any amount of gap in your crop ( for a price of course :innocent: )
-
DO it!!
I am selling dried nettles and they are going like hot cakes!
Not on eBay for me though ;D
-
I don't know about dried nettles. Round here they are very wet nettles.
How come they grow so well whether the weather is hot and dry or cold and wet? Meh!
-
Are they registered, pedigree , rarebreed nettles or John Nettles ( from the outdoor toilet )
-
Yes, please list on E-bay, donate 100% of the proceeds to charity, and post the link here. You never know what might happen ;) .
I believe it's free listing this weekend anyway, so you've nothing to lose :thumbsup: .
-
:D If you would like to add docken to your listing, I could help with the supply of those, as well as Cumbrian nettles, for additional variety :D

And any shortfalls can be supplemented from here.
Plenty Cumbrian reshes too ;D

I've got spear thistles going for a song down here, plus a field full of water? Any takers?
-
;D ;D ;D
D'ya know - I think I might just have enough nettles not to have to buy any ;)
BUT I'd stick em on ebay too - nettles are great for butterflies and other beasties. They were talking about it on the programme from Hampton Court Flower show on the telly last night - so Monty has already given them a plug. ;) ;D

Captain, has the thistle been endorsed by Mr Murray? ;) Worth a bundle with the current Murray mania :thumbsup:

How about selling Buckets of Mud? We could sell multicoloured mud, if we all worked together.
I have rich black mud the colour of coal. What can the rest of you offer?
Do you remember those little bottles of multi-coloured sand you could buy at the seaside when you were little?
We could sell our glass bottles of Multi-coloured-mud-plugs as the Souvenir of Choice of a British Summer Holiday. After all, we have visitors coming from all over the world to enjoy Wimbledon or the Olympics this year :D
-
i think that that is a winner!! :thumbsup:
-
;D ;D ;D
I have brown mud ;)
-
We have red mud and pale grey mud :D

clarty mud (sticky)
slippy mud (perfect to bump off a relative, just witness them careering down a slope...)

Well if we are taking that line I can offer 2 partially decomposed moles - both artfully rearranged by a toddler with a penchant for throwing stones at small corpses ;D I think I have the next Damien Hirst in training :-\
-
Darn, looks like the market in mud has been cornered already.
I do have a nettle taller than me though. I know, because it stung me on the nose when I was taking the rubbish out just now.

I can also offer any amount of fallen over hay.
Standing crops are just soooo last year ::) ;D ;D

:D
I feel better now. Thanks for the laughs!
TAS = MUDMUD
Good luck with the nettle sales.
If we make sufficient profit from these sidelines, we could have a Christmas party - for free :)

Seriously, Selling dried nettles and boxes of fresh green forage (weeds) online has paid for the rescue rabbits vaccinations, and gone a fair way into the cost of a spay :o :o
I am so chuffed you would not believe!
-
Good result :thumbsup:

**Anyone of a nervous disposition look away now...**
We saw an enormous dead rat on the lawn yesterday ... though "well done boys, you've caught the Daddy!"
Went back later and no, its definitely the Mummy - one of the cats has eviscerated it, rat foetuses spread out across the path, guts to one side and god-knows-what to the other, and an umbilical cord stretched out like they were trying to write a message!! :yuk:
-
Thanks for all the giggles... (Well, ok, I didn't giggle about the last one - but that's life).
It's actually not raining here today. Had enough of that yesterday...
Will I get the grass cut this afternoon? :-\

No, that's one of those new Apple i-Nettles, with 'touch-pain' technology. Worth loads of cash!
-
Thanks, guys. I really needed a good laugh. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Guaranteed to get one on here.
