    Path Weedkiller, no chemicals, cheaper too

    Today I have saved you all a lot of money and lots of chemicals too.

    When weeds grow on your driveway, between the slabs of a path or pavement or on your gravel.....

    Don't buy Weedkiller, cos it's bleedin expensive AND you don't want your dogs/cats/kids near it tbh.

    Boil a kettle and slowly and accurately pour the boiling water onto each weed, one at a time.

    It costs just under 2p (during the day) to boil a full 1.7litre kettle (I know,.. I have tested it ) and I can kill prety much everything on my front path with three boils.

    And they don't come back for a long time. And they rot away faster than weedkiller too.

    You can all thank me now

    Works well on door-to-door salesmen too. Especially the ones that try to sell doors door-to-door... cretins.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    Agent Orange is pretty good, but don't let the kids near it until it's rained.

    Almost the right order - cats/dogs/kids. Then ants (Lee@Scan).

    It might fertilize them and they grow more though.
