@Wsteria Maybe I should give some as presents :P

I mostly have stuff that doesn't mind being forgotten for a week or three... jade plants and such

@Anke Gotcha.

@Anke @Wsteria Same here in my work window. The ivy died.

@aldersprig @Wsteria Good. Ivy is Evil.

@Anke There's an ivy in my kitchen right now working on destroying the house.

@Wsteria My mother and I once upon a time removed ivy after it had been growing in a garden for...decades, probably.
I had hives for days afterwards.

@Anke ...regular ivy or poison ivy? o_o

@Wsteria Regular. Poison ivy is not native to Europe, and AFAIK has not been imported. widely.

@Anke Spooky.

@Wsteria That we don't have poison ivy or that I had a mild allergic reaction to handling a whole lot of normal ivy?

@Anke Mostly the latter, but really I was kidding. I don't think of regular ivy as cause for allergies.
