    Why don't you take one now, while it's dark? You've got more chance of getting us to believe you then... :whistle:

    Ooh, one T of T is up. ;)
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    I would like to be a glow-worm.
    A glow-worm's never glum.

    Have I amazed you all so much, you are struck dumb, or are you ignoring me out of fear? :D

    Where are all the questions?
    Why doesn't it have any lower leaves? The wind blew them off.
    Why are the leaves ragged? Frost.
    What's that behind your wonderful prizewinning sunflower? Loganberry and Jostaberry.
    Who's football is that? It was next doors, but they kicked it over, I'm going to puncture it before throwing it back. Not really :)

    It's focus bathroom paint, alot cheaper than outside wood paint and I took the chance it would work and it does, been there 2 years now and as good as new.
    It's that sort of Victorian soft blue/green thats in vogue in kitchens atm.

    :eek: Yes.

    Although I did wonder about the football. Are you sure it's not my next door neighbour's? It looks very familiar.
