Morning everyone...... ;D Now.... LL... ;DI think you may be being a teeny, tiny bit greedy but... Madon..... A river it is (I'd like a little stream )..... Tig.... This is for all yours (although goodness knows when we'd go to bed!! ;D).... Jardack..... No weeds you say...... P.S Jardack, the wish for more knowledge takes quite a few years to work properly. In the mean time, I know some lovely people on here who will be only too happy to help! ;D |

2) A massive pond
3) A big heated greenhouse with a mist propagator, undersoil heated benches, climate control and lots of other gadgets.

1. Rain only at night although i do like the idea of being able to switch it on and off.....brill whoever thought of that one ;D 2. The sunshine that just warms you through and makes you smile not "glow" as my mum would put it. 3. No weeds or pests ever..........or Alan Titchmarsh in my allotment sorting them for me....actually i can't choose the last one.(have just been staring dreamily into space at the thought of me and Mr T sharing a cuppa or two on the lotty. Oh damn now i'm gonna be late for work Laters guys!!  |

OK, these are my garden wishes....not in any particular order..... 1. A very large, tasteful, aged, statue for the back garden like you would find in the garden of a National Trust house (thinking... naked Greek god - must have nice backside ),.....with bigger garden to put it in ;D 2. Electricity supply laid on to the greenhouse......I'd never be out of it ;D 3. For my neighbours to dig up their concrete back garden, reinstate lawn and flower beds.....so that my garden is less prone to flooding. |

Get rid of the dam mole that has moved into my veg patch. 3. Better health so I could work longer in the garden weeding and whatever else needs doing without having to break off all the time do to back troubles. Thanks in advance. Your an  Carol. |
