    Just been telling my other half the latest on GC, and that a lot of peeps had said how miserable they are that they can't get into the garden because of the rain. He couldn't believe that anyone would bother to complain about not being able to garden! I ask you!! This is the man that is currently sat with balsa wood, glue and an inane grin whilst building a factory for his toy train set. (It's Hornby, but I call it toy just to get his goat!!). Each to his own I say! Wouldn't do to be all the same!!

    Gosh don't! We've actually got friends in Cumbria who live in The Old Station Masters House. They have a wonderful country garden AND get the occasional steam engine going by. Perhaps we can aim for that in our retirement! Best get my finger out!!

    Mrs.DAG has warned that now she is not feeding the birds for a while, she has more time to keep an eye on you lot, the gardeners, who should be out there weeding!

    Worse than that folks, shhhhhhhhhhhhh, she is going to give up smoking, ooerrrrr....best keep out of her way then! [​IMG]

    :eek: B****y hell DAG!!!.....Now I'm not worried, but I'm uneasy with the knowledge that Mrs DAG will be looking over your shoulder and getting just that bit closer to us in here!!
    I have enough trouble with Mrs Pal at this end going on about the time I spend sitting at the PC instead of being out of her way in the garden.. :(
    Look mate ..just make sure there is always a cigarette within reach...for all of our sakes... :D

    Great Pal, Mrs.DAG said that I could make myself useful by hanging out Mrs.Pal's smalls for her on that new whirlygig! :D

    Ask Mrs.Pal if its poached egg on toast for breakfast then!

    Oh, and I suppose I will need a planter then? :D

    :D Don't happen very often but after I've hung washing on the line, Mrs.DAG changes all the pegs. She insists on having all the right matching coloured pegs on each item! Barking mad, even the birds are laughing! :D :D
