nutrient levels , eg Phosphate, Potash , pH etc

We then know what fertiliser is needed & we can send the spreaders in

Who said DDK didn't cover a diverse range of subjects

Another good night....

pmjt in full anorak mode;

Ian Donkin late (had to wash the car!);

Helen confused with the plethora of cars in her collection and how to collect them all at the weekend;

One 912 sold (I think) during the evening;

Bert managed not to hit anything;

Ian's Mum (!) dispensing advice on the best way to deal with Aubergines;

James selling Sue's book in aid of Macmillan (signed copies were available!);

Good to see new faces (Richard & Jane) - welcome - and nice motor;

Plans mooted for various visits next year and the year after;

Discourse on who's 356 will be finished first;

Who have I forgotton - Mike and me, the quiet ones [it's an age thing, eh Mike?].

Thanks, James, for organising a good meet and great food.

not sure you or Mike could get a word in edge ways anyway

great night. huge thanks to Bert for the lift there and the scenic drive back. we were so busy talking and admiring the rear end of Richard and Janes car that we flew past the Junction for the M18 and followed them way too far down the A1

directed Bert across country home and i'm happy to report that no wildlife was hurt in the process
