For the last 17 years since Geoff Hamilton sadly departed this world,
our
household expression for watching GW at 8.30 on a Friday has been
putting
'Geoff' on. No one could replace him and certainly not Titch or Toby, or
even Montys first charge of the helm.

However I can finally now say that I feel we have someone I like
equally as
much as Geoff - good old Monty!!


I wish we could say the same.

Do you watch Beechgrove?

Having just watched his prog on Japanese gardens, Monty comes across as
a bit of a fruitcake. Zen doesn't work here because there's no one to
spend all day maintaining perfection. Anyway, a rock in the middle of a
load of gravel doesn't do it for me.

And a british suburban garden would do nothing for Zen Buddhists
