Jenny asks…
Is there such a thing as a garden hose that will not kink?
the label on the last hose I bought said it would not kink, it kinked the first time I used it. Don’t trust labels anymore. There must be high quality hoses out there somewhere that are made of materials that won’t kink…. Ideas?
GardenersCardiff answers:
Wallyworld has “professional landscape” hoses that don’t kink (eek, according to the label). They’re about twice the cost of other hoses, black, 75 feet long, and the female end is protected with a rigid plastic making it easy to attach/detach. Bought mine 2-3 years ago, hasn’t kinked yet.

Where are the best bars/cocktail bars in central London?
Me and a friend are going to London for the weekend for the first time, and on the Saturday night we want to go for something to eat then to a few bars and for a few cocktails.
Which areas are good for classy bars and are fairly close to the underground and easy to find? We are staying near Marble Arch so can get to anywhere central easily.
I’m 21, she’s 22 so we are legal!
Thanks!

Try booking a drink at the Ice Bar on Heddon Street. You wear coats provided and the whole bar is made of ice, even the glasses! A novelty thing so not something to do for long (too cold to stay too long) but still fun.
The Martini Bar at Christopher’s American restaurant in Covent Garden is lovely with a huge range of cocktails.

James asks…
How do you make an easy compost pile?
I’m wanting to make a compost pile just to keep the landfills a little cleaner. I don’t garden or need soil I just hate throwing away things I know would be better off outside of a trash bag and would like to reduce the number of trash bags I use also. So I’m asking for a simple way to make a compost pile I dont need to turn and work on a lot but is also safe.
GardenersCardiff answers:
I might suggest building/purchasing a container above ground that is well aerated on all sides. If you search “compost bins” online, you can get a lot of really good bin design ideas. If you don’t feel like building something, however, you can also purchase pre-made plastic compost bins. At the very least, you could just pile your compost on the ground somewhere. If you are planning on eventually moving the material at some point, however, I would suggest using a compost tumbler so you can simply dump the contents into another container (e.g. Wheelbarrow or garbage can) without having to do a lot of digging.
