       Re: Mel Has Fun With Aquaponics!

       I was watching an episode of Food Rebels, and the presenter was
       focusing on "Edible Todmorden" [guerilla gardening], and they
       had an aquaponic set up in their demonstration area...
       [quote]You grow fish, and with the nutrients from the fish water
       - that would be poo to everyone else - you can grow
       vegetables[/quote]
       TL;DR: Mel, I hope you're out there, I hope you're OK, I hope
       you're enjoying the yumminess of home-farmed silver perch!
       And RevMaxx: ditto, but maybe pumpkins instead of those fishies?

       Hello fellow Mel the Redcap fans:
       I was in contact with her just before Christmas, and she said if
       anyone was asking after her I could post an update...
       I think RevMaxx was, and I suspect others too that I've missed
       [being off the site a few times of late].
       Mel is doing OK(-ish), but is taking a medication that doesn't
       work for her arthritis very well, and yet is giving her lots of
       unpleasant side-effects.  It's all part of the process of
       jumping-through-hoops that she is having to go through to get
       approval/funding for a more effective treatment. :'(
       She said she's about to harvest the first of the season's
       tomatoes, and all is well in the garden/hoop-house apart from
       one fruit tree that isn't likely to survive, and she will be
       back once she feels better.
       To Mel: Wishing you all the best for a speedy switch to better
       drugs, and enjoy the yabbies/fishies.
       Miriam
