Default Snowdrops

The message
from Sacha contains these words:

I've got 'The new Small Garden' by C.E. Lucas-Phillips, published in
1979.
He says no garden should 'omit fruit' and then says that the first thing
to plan when planning a small garden is to decided where you will put
"greenhouse and frames, the tool-shed, compost bins, bonfire and perhaps
chicken house"
He obviously never envisaged some of the gardens that people round here
find acceptable AND pay good money for!!

Amazon has the one by Roy Strong: Successful Small Gardens: New Designs for
Time-conscious Gardeners


As to his advice on chicken houses etc. I have no idea!


Will Evans had some advice wot I unforget on a 78 which made my lip
curl, even at the age of seven - "You put the roof on first."

I had two of his monologues - 'Building a Chicken House' and 'Will Evans
Loses His Umbrella'. Two of the unfunniest sketches ever.
