I've got it everywhere as well. I remember we used to call it sticky bon bon as kids.
Tried throwing some at my 2 year old and she burst into tears!!

No Aunty, those are pink iced buns.. :?
...and I'm glad there have been a few sticky willies on here, it confirms what I've got stuck in my fence at the allotment

I got told as a kid that it was chickweed, and I have always called it that or cleavers.

No 'Buttons' on it!

Actually that's not far off the truth!

Made good green compost though.

OOh thanks - I now know that I have chickweed and cleavers and mares' tails and nettles and dandelions and two other pointless weeds

Only two?

What's the secret in keeping the numbers so low?
