      That caught my eye yesterday, but didn't watch it; I will though.

      It's in the same vein as the community garden featured in last weeks GW where immigrants from troubled places find community and peace in the community garden (Manchester, I think).

      Another example of the powers of gardening :blue thumb:

          "We dug for four or five hours and found water"?
          I thought that was a dry place, I could dig for about two weeks and never find water.:biggrin:
