Bartering


Which is worth the most, a box of duck eggs or a cauliflower?

The answer is they have equal worth in the bartering system and, if I didn't work for a bank and rely on money to keep me in a job, I would lobby for bartering to be the way we should trade.

I really wish I could grow a cauliflower like that. I have put up every defence imaginable but somehow my brassicas are getting eaten. One slight problem I have is that I lost the labels as to what they are so it is possible that, what I think are cauliflowers are actually sprouts. The only thing that is certain is the red cabbage. There are two left that haven't been eaten so fingers crossed that the make it through to Autumn.
