I once opened a tin of beans and after cutting the lid off, put it in my mouth to lick the tomato sauce off, as I pulled the lid out it really cut the two corners of my mouth, I looked like the Joker out of Batman  :lol:  :lol:  

PS ... I love Marmite
I used to work in a helium gas factory, but I walked out, no one talks to me like that.

Just bought a bag of perlite, but have just realised that I dont know what it is, do you mix it in with compost or put it on top?  :unsure:
If you want to be happy for a short time - get drunk.

If you want to be happy for a long time - fall in love.

If you want to be happy forever - take up gardening!

Perlite is an inorganic substance that is usually mixed into soil or whatever you want to further loosen it up. Its the little white bits inside potting mix and such. If you have plants whose leaves are sensitive to splashing, you can add some surface layering of perlite to avoid this.
