Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Try Freecycle or equivalent, people are usually trying to get rid of them!

I'm starting to see evidence of germination :) This batch are going to have to go outside to take their chance from Friday because otherwise they won't get any water for over a week.

Welshpoppy, I noticed pots are recycled at our local B&Q, the excess are piled up near the storage container, I am sure it would be ok to take some.
