Closing the HTUK Forum

But...but....I've only just managed to get back on here!
It's inevitable the youngsters progress onto social media, whereas us of the older generation tend to prefer the layout of a web forum.
All the best people, stay safe

Welcome.
Ask away, there will be someone on here who's done it, seen it, forgotten about it, or killed it!

Probably too big, but worth a shot. I've never attempted cuttings from these, but they self seed regularly for me
