You seem to very much enjoy this. You always pop up when the silly
school girls are fighting. What have you been growing lately Rupert?
Or are you only interested in the fights?

I'm currently designing a new bed, rectangular, surrounded by
lavenders, rosemaries and box (each ends). Any spacing advices?
Perhaps that's a new thread and also perhaps over your head.

I'd keep a distance between the lavender and the rosemary. Lamb and lavender
doesn't sound a great combination.

I saw a wicked rosemary in a pub garden this weekend, mine has gone all
straggly. Do these things get old, like people? If you cut them right back,
do they get a new lease of life, or is it time for the compost bin?

They get old and are a bit temperamental in that they can suddenly die
off for no apparent reason. The good news is, depending on where you
live, that when you buy a new one, it grows relatively quickly.
