BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, When I'm 65 - Positive Ageing. Japanese knotweed, Independent Shops

Japanese knotweed, what independent shops are doing to survive, and why aging is good.

Progress in the war against Japanese knotweed, what independent shops are doing to win your custom, and why getting older is something to be celebrated. With Julian Worricker.

If Japanese knotweed is threatening the structure of your home or has wrecked your mortgage application - there could be good news for you. We'll bring you the latest from the UK's biological war against this invasive foreign species.

Also - we hear a lot about some of the downsides of ageing. But we'll be finding out why life for older people can be a lot more positive than you might expect.

And what are independent shops doing to win your custom in these tough economic times?

Presented by Julian Worricker
Produced by Paul Waters.
