Scottish strawberries in June? Don't quote me but I think it is possible. There are varieties bred to extend the season at either end though lengthening will be easier than starting early.

There are, I think, techniques involving autumn growing, cold storage, followed by early spring planting which can "trick" the plant in to early flowering. It would need to be a day neutral variety - that is flowering is not influenced by day length.

One problem would be pollination which would therefore require poly tunnel or glasshouse production. It's very common to buy bumblebees bred for pollination of many protected crops.

Barnet,
Todays project is to open up the laptop, take the heatsink off the processor, clean all the thermal paste off and then apply some copper shim and new thermal paste.
The laptop is working perfectly fine, I just like to tinker ^_^
Sounds great. I don't have a clue what you are talking about though. ^_^

We have some decorators in here. Mrs P wants the bathroom radiator painted with the same emulsion as the walls. I get why, this appears to be non-negotiable, I've read about the technique and pitfalls.

Any experience out there?
"Turn OFF Your Radiator & Open A Window. Clear The Area. Clean The Surface Of The Radiator. Sand The Radiator. Add Your Radiator Primer. Apply Your Top Coat Of Radiator Paint. Take A Well-Earned & Deserved Rest."
