It's funny you should say that, actually...-- Act 1, Scene 1: an appartment in Paris.Spike enters, stage right, coming home from work. He...
I'd noticed that with the blackberries: the water leak from next door ran right by them adn they've grown by a couple of feet in every direction!...
The fight with the dandelions continues on the lawn (still haven't had time to get to B&Q), but I seem to be winning, slowly. The good news is...
We do that with our drinking water here. On some occasions, the water board drops ni big chlorine tablets and it tastes disgusting, so I fill...
I've almost reached the same point myself: I have a few things to keep control of (mostly those crawling buttercups!), but otherwise things are in...
Wow, lots of replies. The latest pics and what's changed are in the gallery, here.
Ah, dandelions... annoying buggers. I've tried mowing them down, spraying them, pulling them up, even digging some out, but they keep coming...
Finally, an update.The garden's pretty much finished now: we just need to wait and see what comes up. I've had a bit of an 'oops' moment and...

Hmmm, it might well be. Oh me darlin', oh me darlin', oh me daaaaarlin' columbine...Ours has one apparently white flower on it, but it's in a...
OK, so I finally did it. After raining for a day and a half, the weather cleared for a little while this afternoon, so I took the opportunity to...
Ours has several tubers, as you can see from the pic: it's pretty healthy despite having been battered around in a truck while being transported...
The sun came out yesterday and stayed around for a while, which gave me the chance to weed out the side of the back garden. Nothing dramatic,...
An idea: does UBB Classic have the "view posts since last visit" option? That's always a nice one, especially on a well-ordered forum without...
Found this info which indicates it has uses. Looking at the picture, I think all the stuff I have to dig up on the side of the back garden is...
