    Sorry, got over exited then & had to go and have a quick Captain Morgan.

    I'll knock on Choppers door on the way "home" if you haven't heard back from him John.

    Well done Sargent. :thumb:

    ... And its already annoying my Sister :thumb:

    She can't see the point of growing something you can't eat the leaves of. If she keeps that up maybe we can get rid of all the useless shrubs then.:D

    :dh: Yes I have had that one quoted to me a few times as well Zig, but sometimes there are certain people in life that are so easy to wind up.... :hehe:

    Too true Marley, our stonemason is one of them. Every time, hook line & sinker.

    One friday afternoon, we'd finished our days work on the church & were just tidying up outside. Adam the mason was still halfway up the tower working on a doorway.

    I got a tape of gregorian chant & stuck it on in the car, winding down the windows so the plainsong was bouncing all round the church yard.

    [nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhlI3bR8VSU"]YouTube - Catholic music - musica cat�³lica - Gregorian Chants[/nomedia]

    Adam heard the singing & thinking there was something going on, came down the spiral stairs to the gallery over the nave, only to find the church empty !

    Panicking a bit, he rushed outside, only to find us nonchalently sweeping up. He looked all around and, in a voice starting to break asked where the singing was coming from ?

    We looked puzelled & said, what singing ?

    He said, in a voice close to crying, "Can't you hear it ? You MUST BE ABLE TO HEAR IT ?"

    That got him back for running into my new car.

    Yes it's easy to wind up some people, I'm hoping to grow these cabbage on my new patio amongst the planned exotic tropicals, it will be fun seeing who spots the humble cabbage amongst the bananas!
