Happy Birthday to you

Even if I am a cantankerous old argumentative octogenarian?

Yes indeed - from a c.o.a. septuagenarian.
Keep digging Franz!

Impossible. Most of my garden has less than 6 inches of soil over

ground. The interesting thing is that the soil is in fact quite well
drained.

Anyway, thanks for the good wishes, Alan.
