Easy peasy paper pots, 2008-02-21
Making your own paper pots is a quick and easy way to save money in the garden, and recycle waste paper into something useful. Although you can find instructions for folding paper pots on the internet, using a Paper Potter makes the whole process really quick and fool-proof. I've had mine for several years now, and it comes out every spring to make a great swathe of pots that are perfect for seedlings. Once the plants are ready to plant out you can just plant the whole thing - the newspaper breaks down in the soil and the plant roots grow through it - meaning no root disturbance and very happy plants!

Superb Idea, 2008-06-02
I bought a three pack of these; planted them up and hung them outside the back door. Two tomatoes and a courgette. Easy to put together and plant up - care needs to be taken when putting the young plants in. All growing well and looking forward to a good crop. Will update with progress.

Great for girly gardening, 2008-03-25
I must admit I am a bit of a princess when it comes to mud & stuff, but this kit has forced me to brave it and sort out my garden. The range of tools is good and they are fairly hardwearing. If you are doing any serious hard work you will need something a bit more specific than this, but this is a great all-rounder and a really useful gift.

The kit comprises of: pink basket with removable handle to keep everything organised, heavy-weight gloves for dealing with thorny hedges & plants, light-weight gloves which are great for keeping you clean and splinter-free, ball of string for training plants, handheld size fork, handheld size trowel, kneeling mat perfect for resting your knees and keeping your clothes clean, pruning shears for cutting back small branches and stems, pink daisy seeds, plant labels, seed planter for easy & accurate planting, and hand cream for a well-deserved treat after all your hard work.

Electronic Rat Killer

It Works!, 2008-10-23
What more can you say? Ok the batteries are a pain to fit but when you eventually do it works a treat.
You can rid yourselves of the problem in a humane way and no mess so you don't have to come down to a decapitated body in the morning.
I was dubious at first but out of desperation had to get this device as we are plagued with mice.
Great stuff!

They are back!, 2008-09-24
The product took about 3 weeks to work and it worked fine for about 3 months, however, Mr Mouse woke me up at 3:00 am this morning climbing out of my little bedroom bin........so unfortunately the product was not worth buying.............

Am now going to send them back to the manufacturer.

+ve good results, 2008-06-17
I used two in my 3 story 5 flats Victorian house. They have done a good job! I now intend to buy two more to get complete coverage. I used the setting 'continuous'.I just left it on permanently. Maybe I could try 'random' as well, who knows?
