Quote from: Mups on Today at 11:08:56 AMYes,  so they say.   
They say it is also a good thing to suspend a banana above the tomato plants  in your greenhouse/grow-house.  The bananas naturally give off ethylene gas, which helps ripen the fruit.

And also attracts any escaped monkeys from local zoos and safari parks. 🙃

Quote from: Vlad on Today at 09:26:35 AMI read that putting your green toms in a bowl with a banana helps, I have never tried it but I might just give it a try

Quote from: Dextrous63 on Today at 09:51:05 AMWe're in a similar position.  BRSK make an occasional foray into our area to extend their network, presumably to those that sign up, then they bugger off again.  So, we're with VM, who are fine apart from having to go through the rigmarole every couple of years to renegotiate a tariff which (left to its own devices) would increase by an absurd degree!
I am with VM too, Dex, and have been for over 20 years.
I get on alright with them,  except as you say,  that renegotiation thing is a pain.

Quote from: Raven on Today at 10:43:47 AMThere's nothing like a family at war. I know that personally. :wink:
One has to wonder why he waited 29 years if it rankled so deeply. 🤷🏻�♂️

Anyone with any sense would accept the rap on the knuckles, try to learn from it and delete the thread (accepting their error of judgement).
