Stockpiling cash is a waste of time. It'll be worthless.

If going for option B) above you can start them off in bags in your greenhouse NOW so get cracking before there are none left in the shops - useful link https://www.allotment-garden.org/vegeta ... reenhouse/

Now since the air in an aircraft is recirculated several hundred times a flight a see through - tent is only for those who want an audience as you join the mile high club

Buying a private cylinder from british oxygen would be a better investment

BREAKING NEWS >>>>>>>> We have chickened out & decided NOT to board the 7.40am Ryanair flight from Dublin to Treviso on Friday. Junior's workplace have said anyone coming back from anywhere in Italy for the foreseeable future has to stay at home for 14 days regardless of how they feel.
Luckily I have a £9 off a £60 shop voucher to use in Sainsburys on my way home tonight. Will stock up on tinned food I think - that's if there is anything left on the shelves. And this weekend will start a good spring clean of my veggie patch.
