Have I won the National Lottery Online sweepstakes or have I just received another Spam or scan.
I have just received 2 emails both exactly the same and appearing to have been sent from the UK National Lottery Online Sweepstakes International program.
My total winnings even though I haven’t entered any lottery (but in the letter told that I had been selected randomly from World Wide Web sites through computer draw system)was £2,696,385. To quote from the letter (Two Million Six Hundred and NinetySix Thousand, Three
Hundred and Eighty Five Britain pounds starlings)
What do you think, have I one and should I send them the details they have requested to validate my claim.
Name of by beneficiary,
residential address of my next of kin,
sex,
occupation,
nationality,
phone/fax numbers and I guess what would come later on my bank details.
I think this time I will take the view that what I haven’t had I wont miss.
Wishing Good luck to anyone playing the real National Lottery

Grow you own Globe Artichokes
Globe Artichokes
Globe artichokes require an open sunny position where the soil is rich and well drained. Each mature artichoke can yeild up to six heads. Each plant needs to be planted 3ft apart in each direction.
Artichokes will continue to grow and flower for upto 6 years but in the UK apart from the south they may not survive over winter. After the 3rd year you can expect the heads to become smaller and tougher so it is a good idea to replace a few plants each year.
Buy plants or suckers (for the UK buy and plant these during April). New plants will produce some heads by August or September though it is better to encourage growth in the 1st year by removing buds as soon as they appear. In the second and 3rd year allow each plant to develop only four to six stems. Leave the flower on the main stem and several others at the end of lateral shoots. Nip of any extra buds on side shoots to ensure a good crop.
Raise new plants
In April or November select strong shoots about 9in high on plants that are at least years old. Cut vertically alongside each shoot with a spade or sharp knife retaining part of the rootstock.
Discard the rest of the plant after removing shoots. Shoots removed in April can be planted straight out.
Harvesting
Start with the King head 1st, pick heads whilst they are still green and tightly wrapped. Use secateurs to cut of the heads, the cut back each stem to about half its original length.

Aubergines - Egg Plant - Native of tropical Asia
Aubergines
Also known as the egg plant native of tropical Asia and for this reason, if growing in the UK it is best to grow in a green house, though you may have success growing outdoors if planted against south facing wall during long hot summers. A sunny patio will also provide reasonable conditions, you can either plant in pots or in compost bags.
If planting in a greenhouse plant in 7in pots or in the border. Aubergines require well drained soil, liberally dressed with manure.
How many should you grow?
In a greenhouse you will need to place pots approx 18in apart, the same space is required for plants planted outside in a greenhouse you may expect around 12 fruits per plant whilst planted outdoors in the UK you can only expect upto 4 fruits.
How to Grow
In the UK sow aubergines in seed compost in February, the temp required is 18C 64F so sow in a propagator or close to heat source in greenhouse.
When large enough to handle prick out and plant in 3in pots and grow on in temp around 16C 61F. If you are growing these plants indoors transfer to 7 in pots when they are 4-6in high. Harden off outdoor plants during May and plant out end May. For growing on a patio plant in 7in pots.
Pinching Out
When plants are about 9in high, pinch out their tops to encourage them to bush out.
For Indoor plants allow up to 3 fruits to form on each of the lateral branches. For outdoors plants pinch out the tips of each branch once a fruit has formed, leaving 3 leaves beyond the fruit.
Whether indoor or outdoor, remove side shoots that form on laterals.
Water generously and give weekly feed of liquid manure when fruits are visable.
To keep down red spider mite spray plants reguarly with water.
