Whitefriars had a trial last Sunday and are starting again this Sunday. Pesky work will get in the way for me, but Wednesday evenings also restarting. Hooray!

I could let you have some great exotic stuff, it's called knotweed, all the way from Japan, I think I read somewhere it's so expensive you have to insure it.

Had to make a major investment in high strength Roundup 3000 to despatch those Japanese invaders. And the little blighters pop up unexpectedly just when you think they are all cleared. 

At least both clubs are planning to restart racing now.

I've got that Chinese bamboo stuff. Looks lovely but can get a little unrulely. Had one shoot last year grow to about 5 metres! Could have made a mast out of it for your V2

Our tomato plants simply sprouted in compost from the heap. Got pumpkins too, one of which is trying to take over the garden.

Could be, I have done some (to me) quite remarkable things with a tomato I nicked off my wifes plate and now have twenty plants going mad in this sort of building made from glass that came with this newish house we 'retired' to and spinach from some seeds I found and potatoes.. Doesn't quite replace sailing but it's an interesting diversion.
