Jomifl-- made me laugh that, come round and I'll prepare one for you.
I used ordinary vinegar on dandelions and it worked .
Brenda, I live in SW France, but thanks for the offer. By the way I don't think the colour of the vinegar makes much difference though if you are weedkilling around beetroot plants I suggest red wine vinegar ;-)
