[leave a comment]- RE:To all concerned with Knotweed Pulling - be very careful. You may well increase the spread of the plant by pulling it out of the ground. It is not a recognised method of control. Not wanting to dampen the enthusiasm of the local community, but trust me when I say BE CAREFUL!! There are much more effective methods of control and if pulling is to be done it would need to be done for a number of years (10+) to be effective. There are also legal issues regarding the transportation and disposal - philrusted

Terry Jones was good last night at the Literary Festival, though he was rushing a bit, think he was trying to squeeze too much material into a truncated time slot. He did do a few Pythonesque things including telling us someone was a "very naughty boy". I forget who now, maybe Richard III. Got a book signed by him (Terry Jones, not Richard III), and also Roy Hattersley. Not the same book. Terry Jones si -

[leave a comment]- Magic Numbers every bit as good as I predictedOK my prediction of Morrissey joining them on stage was a complete fabrication, but we did get Bernard Butler appearing with them to perform "Love's a Game", which then medleyed on into "People Get Ready". They did another wacky ending of another of their songs, turning it into Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill". Great gig, really good, having a string section added a dimension I expect (though I've not seen The 'Numbers before, and getting other artists up to join in was cool (The Smoke Fairies -
