Don't know if anyone else has followed the link above for 'gardening network' but I just wonder how many Boating enthusiasts have time for gardening or vice versa?
There is no mention of gardening anywhere on that site either, that I can find!
Still it pays for the site.

It's a mad world this internet lark - perhaps they are thinking of growing some 'splish splash' ;D x Tig

Now why do I get an advert asking me why my stomach is fat.
It is a persistent ad as it has been there for more than a week now and above most parts of GWD.
Love the name of the site though StomachFatsUgly.net.
Not that I will ever click on that insult ;D
No, silly add people, I do not have stomach fat, well maybe just a little bit .... but it is none of your business.

Weeds are nature's revolution against the government of the gardener.
