Well done, Danny. I saw the small ones and would have snapped them up if the big ones hadn't been there.

How heavy are the dry blocks? I could get my friend to pick some up if she’s got a Morrisons nearby.

Bought 7 more boxes of coir compost at £1.50 a box. I think 7 more boxes would have cleared their stock.

My closest Morrisons only had the smaller, 15L (w/perlite) bricks for 75p. Got 16 of them. The bigger Morrisons are a bit of a trek to get to and 240L is probably enough for a while.

I sent my mate to her local Morrisons. But they didn’t have any of the compost blocks. 
Today I’ve got another couple of plants from a friend. A climbing rose and I think a bird cherry ( she couldn’t remember what it was )

All the big blocks of coir have been sold at my local Morries - still lots of small ones left. They also had wheelbarrows reduced from £45 to £15. Thought The Boss might like some more.
