CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

I don't think so Spacie, but they know a thing or two about carrots, like they don't grow on trees.

Good morning stockbunny and Spaceman,

Socrates- with the aid of the internet I have been doing some research on carrot flies. Apparently, the adult fly locates carrots by a number of means, including scent. So there are two possibilities here, one is to peg their noses so they can't smell the carrots or that we all donate our perfume/aftershave to you and you dab it around the fence!!!

Socs, well I have to take your word for that, last time I asked a carrot fly about it he didnt even reply.....

Time for elevenses, where is Bunny?

I went to the antique fair at the NEC and scored a resounding victory. Managed to come away without spending any money, apart from refreshments. I've never seen so many Auntie Wainrights in the same place all at once before. Some lovely items there, could have spent a fortune. If only I had one to spend!

I'm here! Actually you can combat carrot fly by interplanting onions as they hate the smell of those....OK lunch....aubergine bake or cottage pie.

Yes please Bunny.

PS carrots don't ward off onion fly, so what then?

there isn't an onion fly Socs to my knowledge - just bunnies with smelly breath LOL

Delia Antiqua - Onion Fly.

That'll be the one that baits the onion fish then.
Jeffie will know.

Good afternoon Choccy. Suddenly the day has brightened up.

Cor thanks, Socks :)

Morning all, what's for brekkie?

We've got some cold bacon and greasy eggs left, K. Or you could have lunch and catch up with the rest of the world.

What's for lunch then?

Courtesy of Bunny, aubergine bake or cottage pie. (Or cold bacon and greasy eggs).

or onion and carrot fly stew ?

Hi Keaydian, if there was ever an incentive to get up earlier it is NOW....I mean onion and carrot fly stew or congealed left overs versus the lovely FEB that Socrates was offering us much earlier.

:o(

Just a cup of tea then please.

Choccie
I know nothing....
or
I only know what my wife will let me know

I just cleaned my glasses, isn't it a lovely day.

Hi Jeffers, just woke up have you?
