Hi

I've just been to visit the allotment and have found lots of small lumps of clear jel lying on top of some recently spread compost that someone gave to us - so I don't know the source. Does anyone have any idea what it is - or if its toxic etc - Hope not!

Thanks

Thanks for that - lets hope they are - another plot holder thought it all seemed a bit Doctor Who'ish - glistening lumps suddenly appearing and all that - bit of a let down knowing its something far more mundane but at least I can rest easy now. Should I just leave them be do you think.....

Oh, I was just trying to lighten the mood a bit at the time. Should I go back to being terribly serious, Star? ;) ;D

Aww heck, talk about a misunderstanding! LOL ;D The thread on The Gallery I meant was 'spot the ringer' and of course I wasn't offended by your post. I just hope Patsy wasn't offended by my little joke.
