While we were away hundreds of thistles have sprung up next to our mooring. Our neighbour Eddie has a thistle tool, capable of removing thistle and root in one go.
I offered Em one cent per thistle and after some hard bargaining [that would have resulted in a new parliament if applied in the UK] she agreed to do it for 2 cents. She enlisted Mats' help and half an hour later I was presented with the bill for 1 euro 60.
Now they are off to offer their services to the neighbours [at 3 cents a thistle!]
