    They're just clearing up now. I don't think it'll be anywhere near as bad as I feared. :)
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    Mrbadexample did you get any of the fleecy stuff from Poundland? If not I can stick some in with the seeds for you (couldn't get to the post office during the week due to work commitments (sorry).

    Don't be daft! You don't need to be doing that!

    But thanks for the offer. :kiss:

    New fence:

    Slight damage to rhubarb and gooseberry bush:

    I hope lavender are forgiving, because I had to lift them both and replant:

    I am extremely glad it's all over. :D

    Now then, where's that Sambucus [STRIKE]fella[/STRIKE] lass? :p

    Because you are directly responsible for these:

    "Cracked" in the propagator according to instructions. It's a bit late now, so they'll overnight on the windowsill before going into the greenhouse tomorrow.

    If they die it's your fault. :p

    Very smart fence Mr BE - not much collateral damage then.

    Is that lilac already in flower next door?
    If I'm over the hill, where was the top?

    No, but if you'd have seen him standing on the gooseberry bush shovelling rubbish onto the rhubarb... :whistle: :mad:

    Over the fence down by your greenhouse, I see purple flowers on a tall shrub.

    Oi! You're meant to be looking at MY garden! :mad:

    :rotfl: You've got good eyes. Is that a lilac then? That's a flower, isn't it? :p
