Here is a question that Gromit will be able to answer:
I have successfully grown some cuttings from a Buddleia plant (Lindyanna ?). The biggest baby plantlet is now about eight inches tall. Should I cut the main stem to increase the ickle side shooty thingies to grow. How many pairs of leaves should I count up from the bottom of the plant?
I also have lots of baby plantlets of Potentilla and Cotinus Coggygria.

Gromit- I can help....with the eating of the biscuits 
Feeling rather
Fell off my bike tonight, don't know what happened but one minute I was going along nicely, next I was on the floor in the middle of the road 
luckily it was just a side road leading out of a shopping precent so was not busy, nobody got out of their cars to see if I was OK though 
Broke my mirror and my computer sensor, also the rear light bracket camee loose but maybe fixable, could have been a lot worse.

The most complicated essay wot I had to try to write was on the following question:
"Has the improvement in the rights of Female Muslims in France since the end of the first World War had a positive or negative impact on the rights of other women in France?" Nice and straightforward, not. I should mention that the answer was to written in French.

I'm just watching the end of Local Hero, one of my favourite films, partly for the whopping big error I spotted in it, but mostly for the scenery and the mad little Scottish village life. And Dennis Lawson.

Hmmm I think it is best to prune in spring as the frost wont get it, do it any earlier it will reduce its chances of flowering. You can be quite harsh with Buddleia, most people cut them right down to the ground usually above a leaf node.

Indeed, if she could kill buddleia, the RHS would probably give her a medal!

Huh. I managed to kill a mint plant, which I thought was impossible.

Hope you and bike not too badly damaged.
Need a heavier duty bike?
Potsy won't see this anyway as he is probably still ignoring me.

Well the cycle computer wasn't broken just the sensor had turned inwards, only realised after I'd cut the cable ties off and now I have no more to put back on
Broken mirror I can live without, not sure if the rear derailleur is broken, will have a better look tomorrow but it seems a bit loose.
I remember a very large gust of wind that was threatening to blow my baseball hat off, took my left hand off the bars to catch it and the bike just seemed to stop dead, could have pulled the front brake in panic I suppose, went over the bars and slightly to the right, bike fell on top of me which limited the damage
Cannot remember why I was ignoring NT, must have been a good reason, I'm not one to be childish

It could have been worse, glad it isn't.
If there is anything I can help fix let me know.
