Argonaut - can you put your location in your profile cos there's a good chance people here can point you to a supplier locally?

I have just done that.
There are those that always like to find fault, if you spot a Typo ... consider put there for you.

have you tried these agricultural merchants near you? you could also google horticultural supplies. Don't pay more that £5 for 35kg!

If your garden centre has a member of staff with half a brain you should be able to find lime there. Trouble is it's called something daft now but it's there. I was led to it because there's a couple of proper gardeners on the staff of mine. Just can't think of what it's called. Might just nip in and find out.

Wyevale in Swansea has it in stock at the moment - £5.99 for a 3.5KG box...

(I know that is expensive compared to some of the other prices /quantities mnetioned earlier)

I went to Wyevale (Morriston) on Saturday ... and they advised they do not have it in stock.  .... >:(

But as I need 30Kg ... too expensive anyway.

The stuff in Wilko's was called 'Acidity regulator' last time I was in there.
