Re: : Feeding Questions

Hi Rena,
The prob is the "Ancients" are gonna be 20 years or more older than me, I'm
the young mummy with a 2 year old! Think they'll listen to me or drive me
round the bend?I'd rather work with kids cos I used to teach and them I can
handle! Thanks for the encouragement, I didnt know Plant a Row is
International. My member of Parliament is supportive so maybe I should gove
this a go, will contact the people you suggested.Thanks. How is your garden
coming along? Do people co-operate?How big is your plot?

Nesa
