Does the job a treat though, Shirl, and I think my neighbours are probably used to me by now!

Great idea Hazel. I'll give that a go.

Thats a great idea Hazel!

Don't you get wet hair?

Or am I particularly inept at this sport?

**Hazel at the Hill** · 06-06-2007, 07:18 PM

I think that your problem is that you're holding the watering can in the other hand at the same time..........

**Flummery** · 06-06-2007, 09:07 PM

And you're not supposed to?

Now that the salad leaves are coming into their own (yay!), I have a TOP TIP for drying the leaves!

Just put the washed leaves into a 'wash net' (a cloth net bag with a zip fastener normally used for delicate items in the washing machine, and sold for 49p in Morrisons), zip up the bag, and .........

I thought you were going to say put it in the spin drier

Didnt somebody on here suggest whirling watering cans around your head recently .... this is turning into a good sport me thinks ... and if you did it for long enough maybe the cats and mice and others would be deterred, human scarecrows at the same time?

'Twas meself, moggsue. I was complaining (what's new?) that I tended to over water the middle of a module and under water the outside, because of the amount of water coming out of different bits of the watering can rose. My solution was to swing the can (having first checked that no-one was looking!)

It's not doing much for the modules but the biceps are coming along nicely!

**moggssue** · 07-06-2007, 12:29 PM

So, water by swinging with right hand, dry by swinging with left hand? Upwind for the former, downwind for the latter to keep head dry? I shall definitely give the salad spinning idea a whirl!
