Hi Dominique:

                   Where have you obtained MY grit from???

Alberto, you must be mistaken...
surely Dom has obtained his grit from Scotland.... all OUR grit looks like this

Hi:

    Is it granite, isn't it'

    It is exactly the same type of grit we use as 1/3 in volume for all of our bulbs. I wonder if the size is the same. Could anyone of you place a 100 dollars note on it for comparison?

Thanks

Maggi, you must be wrong  - it is from Germany!

Alberto, what are 100 $ ? - I am a poor pensioner

This is our Scottish granite grit, one quarter inch/ or 6mm approx. size... 
Alberto, I am a Scotswoman and we must save money where possible, so here is a photo for you to make size comparison....

so, only a $50 bill ...


...sorry, clicked post before adding pic the first time! It must be all that money is exciting me

Maggi,
You are not a real Scottish woman - I was told Scots never show their money   
Maybe your time in Germany modified you?

Thanks Gerd and Maggi.


Coming to think of it a check for 7,0000 euros would have served the same purpose.

Now, is it granite grit both in Scotland and in Germany, please?

Thanks

[Gerdk]

In Germany it is!

Yes, granite here... in fact, lots of Scotland IS granite! Here in Aberdeen all the older houses are built with granite blocks, our house is built with grey granite blocks with "red" granite edging... sounds very bright but it isn't really,. There are dozens of colours of granite across the country but most houses in Aberdeen are built from the grey, some with trim in red, like ours, some all red.... wonderful strong material, though, of course, we glow in the dark from the radiation and poison from the radon gas.... ... but we don't mind, it looks good and it makes excellent grit for our plants! 

Gerd, my Scots roots are impeccable... I showed you IAN'S money!

Thanks Gerd and Maggi.
