Does anybody know where you can get unroasted peanuts suitable for feeding to birds in reasonable quantities. We do buy a seed mix from our local consorzio for the seed feeder but we have a nut feeder that needs filling.

I have a 12 yr old dog, lurcher. His breathing pattern has changed when we go for our early morning walk, (at a very gentle pace). He wheezes, puffs and snorts....all very distressing.

May be worth contacting a May be worth asking a few architects who have landscapers 'prettying' up estates for rock stars and politicians in the region...sure they are the people in the money.... If anyone has any .....  If no joy tho' do consider transplanting, as Gala's article says prune top back hard to same diameter as roots and see what gives....sure you could find buyer but just running out of time...Not sure where you are but would help you if I could....dont like to think of trees 'homeless'.....

  Although no expert when it comes to 'olive trees', do know a bit about plants and gut feeling says you need to act fast as sap will be rising.....  Understand your fear / concerns re: asking nurseries for quotes etc and as this building up to their 'busy time probably not good idea.  If any help, if mine I would get digger to dig trench in unused area, get digger to dig up trees, prune roots back to 1m diameterand transplant...water well and see what gives.....If sucessful you could spend all yr looking for buyer and trees eaier to dig up next winter and sell for 'kennel loads of money'....know in uk an olive tree of that age would fetch £200 plus retail...just a thought....Sorry cant be more help, sure people more knowledgable than me can offer more advice....Good luck. PS I have lovely lurcher and young cat, may need putting up in hotel one day...let us know when you can accept paying guests.

  Awwwww Pilch, Poor moggies....difficult as you say, not to get involved....know I couldn't ignore and would have had to dig out the old can of cat food and be up early next morning to see if any had gone....As for sod the expense, think the more people that use the 'free' neutering scheme the better...'dont use it and you will loose it' thing...will post any update on friend in Amandola comune who also wants to use scheme to have 6 approx male cats sorted......Wonder if other regions run same scheme ????  Good to hear Timmy and Jimmy looking fit, lean and mean...who knows what would of happened to them had they not enjoyed quality milk c / o a can or two or three +++++++++++++++++++ of old cat food...then new...........
