Persicaria (World’s End Burgess Hill) Gifted Roughly 70cm tall. Dies down in winter. My dad had this in a pot in his garden. It was very pot bound which is why it is rather scruffy and leggy (see second photo). It needs dividing up into smaller plants. I think it will then look healthy next spring when the new leaves emerge.

cd roms (World’s End Burgess Hill) Assorted CD Roms. Including SIMS, Harry Potter, Tycoon, cricket, Napoleon, Cossacks, Atlas, Dictionary, and spelling and maths for young children. They use Windows 98 or XP. These are many years old, and I have no idea whether anyone would even own a suitable computer system. I really don’t know what to do with them. Alternatively can anyone find a use for the CD’s and the cases? Thank you.
