Wilkinsons have got horseradish thongs in stock for £1.50 each.

JB - do you think it would be a good idea to post your expert way of growing horseradish under Technical Data? It would be useful for new members.

Good idea Tigger, but I'm afraid I had to read this message twice!

I've never heard them called "thongs" before and it initially sounded like some soft of medieaval torture..... :oops:

Sorry if I'm out of order!!!!

Hi Tigs and Colin,
Thongs is what they are called. This is not invented by me but the method of controlling Horseradish was.
I thought thongs were what kept a Bikini together!
Don't tell me my dreams have been in vain all these years!
I think perhaps it might be a good idea to put it on the Technical Data thread.

Great, 'cos I have a pot of the stuff in my greenhouse that I'm scared to plant out.

Bikinis? I wear thongs every day and haven't owned a bikini for years.

OK, dark room and a rub down with a damp copy of KG for JB and OH. :lol:

Dear Chantal, i don't know how you could think such things of J.B and myself, :shock: or can you read our minds. :twisted: :) :wink:

Chantal i'm still not sure why you actually want to wear horseradish thongs for, is it some ancient ritual act or something. :roll:
