You are being unfair, Anne. I learned that I can't afford a raised

And it was nice to see the kids playing happily with their grow bags.


Our new community gardens are being officially "handed over"
later this month. We're to be having loads of raised beds, which
will be funded by some body or other. Perhaps if you applied
to English Natural Heritage, or something... ;-)

LOL! I was referring to the "kids" who were on the patio in front of
the silly shed.

The programme didn't tell me how to deal with an animal of some kind
which shifted a stone off the corrugated plastic which is protecting the
sugar snaps bed until they germinate, dug a hole 1ft diameter and 9"
deep. It then crapped and vomited in and around the hole.

Oh, yuk!! You had a good look at the crap, I presume?
That might have told you which type of animal was the culprit...

I have seen it before, and suspect a big Tomcat.
It craps on my front lawn or next door's occasionally, after scratching
at the grass.
I haven't seen foxes in the garden for a year or more, but I don't check
the security camera recordings every day.
