It's been a chainsaw and hedge trimmer job in the end but glysophate will be going on to assist maintaining standards going forth. I agree NP, just don't drink it.

I was quite amused at the weekend chatting to a chap at a farmers market who was very critical of glysophate being carcinogenic and how chlorinated chicken certainly meant lower food standards whilst continually puffing away on some sort of vape machine from his mouth, I suspect the irony was lost on the fella.

I saw a couple of teenagers cruising around in one of those ridiculous farting cars yesterday.They both must have exhaled their vaping machines at the same time .The car filled up wth thick white smoke, the brakes got slammed on and the windows opened.
Perhaps it was oxalic acid?

in the end. I had to succumb and do some work. I ended up using a chainsaw and hedge trimmer to great effect. I havent yet used glysophate but will do shortly as the nettles have started jumping back up and are around 18inch high already. I have used it in the past with no problems at all.
