Latest Moan From You and Me 2023

The British Police have arrived here again on the McCann case! One of the scenes they put up is of the Arade Dam near us which they have dragged umpteen times.

 

I was under the impression that the German police were in charge.

Went to Chelsea Flower Show yesterday. Can’t say I was impressed. Yes, some nice exhibits, but couldn’t really get a good look at the show gardens, but what I did see was a bit…underwhelming. Nearly £90 each to stand in a massive crowd? Won’t be going again.

 

Not a person for shows but have heard that the Hampton Court one is a better day out.

 

Yes, I’d have to agree. We went maybe 20 (?) years ago. Although it was crowded, we were able to see the show gardens properly, and were of a more eye catching standard. Just my opinion.

 

On the upside, we did discover Trollius (Globeflower) at the show. It’s our last day in the London area tomorrow, so we’ll be trying a local garden centre to try and source the above. On that note, can anyone recommend a good/big garden centre near the Abbey Wood/Bexley area?

 

Do you think all this 'back to nature' religion is having a knock-on effect? I should think that most exhibitors are under enormous pressure to avoid eco-unfriendly gardens and produce something more akin to a roadside verge

 

I think you’ve hit the nail on the head. I think it’s laudable that they’re making an effort to be more considerate of the environment, but when I see a show garden, I want to be ‘wowed’. I was actually looking for some inspiration. The only garden I really liked was the Japanese garden, and even that was a bit scaled back, I thought. I guess if I was able to be more immersed in the gardens, I might well have a different opinion

 

Most Sunday's in bonfire day, do you have to pay for your garden rubbish to be taking away, if you do, think where it's going, garden maintain's guy does a lot of burning of garden waste at home!!!! 7am bonfire and smokey one's at that

 

I saw that political programme on BBC this morning, it had the minister for health Steve Barclay and a union representative for junior doctors, cant remember his name but lets call him Mr 35%, or is it Mr 49% now.

Personally I'd lock these two in a room and not let them out until they both get off their high horses and sort something out.
Complete disgrace the pair of them.

 

A few months back there was a problem so i said something to the owner so that they know there was something wrong, well it must have been a hard hat day as i got both barrels, well the problem was back again so i said nowt cost lots ££££££££££££££

 

I am sick to the back teeth of hearing about Schofield's gay affair. How is this possibly newsworthy? I just don't get it - what about more news coverage of global issues such as the Ukraine war and the anti-Putin Russian partisan forces?

The coverage of Joe Biden tripping over a misplaced bag of sand - well I suppose that's only slightly more interesting than Scofield.
