Too clamy here I wish we had a thunderstorm to clear the air a bit. Perfect tomato weather though my home is like a green house. As for pegs no I use the drier the kids here would nick anything put out.

Its the UV out of sunlight that makes the plastic go brittle. Make sure you keep them in the dark when not in use and they will last a lot longer. :)

Its a throwaway society these days...

They may be cheap but thats no reason to be so disposable. Remember that they need OIL to make plastic so they are using more of our fossil fuels every time you buy some new pegs!

If petrol hits £1 plus a litre there could be more for plastics as people would be buying less.
Then again do we really want to fill up Whinny Hill tip that quick so recycle them.

I can't. I don't have a bin/bag/box for plastic pegs. Please talk quietly or someone at the Council might dream up a plastic peg bin.
