Buy a camel:icon_wink
I could see if BG will lend me one of his, apparently his "helpers" have them to travel around the grounds because the fukkers too tight to buy horses or off road bikes for them. He trades each wife in for 2 camels when he goes to Egypt on an "import" trip.

Women are usually worth 15 camels in Egypt, but eh, it's BG, what else is he likely to get

Today

- Lawns done
- Beans in
- Bluebells all dead headed
- Weeping Willow trimmed back a tad
- Tomato food added to toms and roses
- Irises starting to flower nicely
- Wild flower seeds scattered around the willow


You did all that yourself Melton? How quaint and so green thinking as well.

I must see if our gardening staff are up to date with the grounds....:icon_bigg
 
I spent a few hours moving the stones off the front garden as the mrs wants a lawn there, great another fecking one to cut.
 
Anybody want to mow my lawn for a fiver...like a fecking jungle out there:icon_roll

as it would cost me around £130 in petrol not to mention general wear on the car etc, Id say no.
 
Whilst not a terribly committed or skilled gardener, I am the proud owner of a lemon tree and a grapefruit tree.

The lemon tree is a Meyer's lemon, which is a cross between a lemon and a mandarin orange. Squeeze one into a glass of fizzy water and I get instant, delicious, naturally sweet lemonade. Lovely!

Don't like feckin grapefruit though, which is a shame, especially as the bugger has a bumper crop this year.... but it does provide the perfect shady spot in our little courtyard, so I can't complain.

I also have a few cacti ("barrell" cactus and some giant Brazilian thing which is almost as tall as the house now), a splendid Tombstone Rose which covers our outdoor bar :icon_cool :icon_wink and four big, shady pine trees. The Mrs deals with the other, more girly stuff (hibiscus, geraniums, wystiria, philodendrons, jasmine, etc)
 
Sounds nice Des, there must ne a world of difference between gardening over here and in Tucson,

:eek: Cacti in your Garden, sounds fantastic. Maybe BG should line the borders of his property with them to prevent the cats coming in

or to keep his immigrant workers in....
 
My cat, he laugh at your cactus
 
Thought I'd rehash this,I need some excitement in my life....

I did feck all at the allotment this year, too much going on.
