Linda McCartney was a great advocate of beetroot...... say no more. Everything in moderation. Eat fresh, local and not processed, the rubbish that is served up to us these days is diabolical, we need to keep the few local shops we have and say no to the mass produced, chemical sprayed, hormone and steroid grown produce that they are palming of to us as 'economy' buys, cheap to the pocket but not to health! I know we have to buy carefully but we shouldn't have to sell our selves cheap to contribute to the purses of the supermarket giants.

Nowt new in that John, my mother used to make beetroot wine before the war, and before you crack up and ask which war, the last one. I always plant lots of beetroot on the plot, but this year the dammed weather has made most of them bolt.
