    Hello chums :)

    It seems us gardeners are a boring old lot, so I thought I'd start a thread to celebrate. To kick it off... I went to see an old friend today and we had a really interesting discussion about his 100 year old Cuckoo Clock. Apparently, when he originally bought it, there was a part missing, so he had the part specially made. Interesting eh?
    So, how boring were you today? :)

            Yes, a fine example indeed. I see they pick up post at 5:30pm on weekdays, really interesting. Thanks for sharing :dbgrtmb:
