Burning Love

Ah, the joys of the middle aisles at Aldi.
Finding that the fridge was bereft of foodstuffs, we thought that we’d better nip out and get something for tea. Whilst Mrs C was filling the trolley with food, I wandered off to peruse the cornucopia of random goods that can be purchased from the middle aisles.
Before we went out, Mrs C had been bemoaning the fact that no matter how much weeding she did, they seemed to grow back almost immediately. Not to mention the backache she got from all the bending over. So something more effective was required. Weedkiller is out on the grounds that it might affect the plethora of wild birds and animals that inhabit our garden.
So, when I spotted this electric weed killer it seemed the perfect thing to pop in the trolley alongside the pizzas and ice creams (I never said we were shopping healthily). I mean, they wouldn’t stock these things if they didn’t expect us to buy them would they?
Sadly, the arrival of rain has curtailed any plans to try it out this afternoon so we’ll have to wait for another day to see how effective it is on the various triffids that infest our property.
