I can see that you are all having a Whale of a time, but what has this got
to do with gardening and what about the rules and regulations which are
often printed about 'pruning'? (bringing the thread back ON TOPIC for the
newsgroup/forum)



(Joseph I have replied to your email but it bounced back. email me again)



Mike



left this lot in for those who fail to read the rules and regulations

Yesterday, I noticed a single stem of Ivy Broomrape growing
in my
mainly
Pyracantha hedge where a pretty ivy grows through. Although
I've
seen
images in books, I'd never seen a living one before. I
believe
it's
parasitic on ivy, but don't know how it gets there. Is it
in some
way
endemic? Or is seed distributed by birds?

Thanks for that, Martin. Another useful link. I'll have a
good read
tomorrow. Spent the day in the garden today and pulled a
muscle
helfting something, so just catching up here now.
Thanks again.

Take it easy. Get well soon.

Isn't that what the sexy oyster did - pulled a mussel?



Grooaaann! I shan't get a winkle of sleep now, after that :~).

You cod always take an aspirin!



I'd rather keep the hake.

That's just a red herring.



It's time I put you in your plaice.

Some people have no sole. (I'm a dab hand at this, and not yet
floundering.)

Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! Repetition.

I think he's fin-ished!

He took the bait.

Rod for his own back! (There's a touch of desperation creeping in
here!!)

reel him in?

hook, line and sinker!
