Thanks for those other suggestions. We have a whitebeam growing on now, but that's destined for the other side of the garden.

I do fancy a copper beech, but like the wych elm, I fear it might get too large. On the other hand, I won't live long enough to make it worthwhile planting it at a great distance! :rotfl:Maybe a fastigiate form?

Oh, I've just remembered there are some great oak trees as well..... and the gingko, which would actually go well with 'next-door-field-lady's' poplars.

And speaking of poplars, I want one of those down at the other end; you know the white one with the trembly leaves. Great at a distance, but not in your drains! :eek:

It sounds like I should be glad that I seldom watch live TV other than news.

Aspen, Dave?

re hotch potch...I think thats ok....its a country garden.

Good. I agree That's decided, then!

Re; micro pets, I thought the pig people had gone bust?

Pete's Kune kunes have just farrowed- about 12 - 14 piglets apiece. I joke that I've never seen so many potential sausages in one place, because I understand that's all they're good for.

They started out as a couple of pets for his DW...... :rotfl:

don't is kune kunes. They re a good pig for people who like grass/run other animals....they graze rather than snuffley plough. IF we were to get a pair of pigs it woul have to be kunes (but I secretly want alfie's mabel!)
