You can picture the scene. You're out on the town, all preened and primped and crimped and suited and booted, and you're looking for love. You get lucky; they're gorgeous and funny and clever and they really, really, like you. The evening is an unqualified success. Why yes, they would like to come back to yours for coffee. The taxi drops you off on the main road, and you walk towards the gates. You become aware that they're backing away.TheGardener wrote: »And the railway line even closer! :rotfl:

No, come back! you cry. Despite appearances, I'm not going to chop you up and put you in bin bags!

The one in the back garden? Pic 10?
Mind you, I'm a couple of hours north of York and we currently have a palm tree positioned by the river. Looking a little the worse for wear though, and I think it was only intended to be there for the summer - is in a container.
