I have no experience but I would be willing to garden in women's
clothing if you can guarantee that it will make me a *star*.

Oh goody! maybe they will do co-hosts, so that way we can see Charlie in
his garden get up that billy teased him about in the past......

lol!


With this degree of brainstorming and talent, us Yanks'll surely beat
'em to the punch.

This production needs a name. I don't think "Gardening is a Drag" will
fly. Suggestions?

Sorry to dash your hopes, Amy, but you're a decade too late.

Here in the UK we've already had our fill of TV garden presenters who
cultivate sexual ambiguity. There was the two-pronged appeal of butch
and braless beerswilling one-of-the-guys-gal Charlie Dimmock. Plus her
side-kick Tommy the handyman, 6ft of scowling muscle in tiny tight
white shorts and bondage-strap webbing tool belt.


I miss Ground Force with Alan Titchmarsh, it just worked all the way around.
But I do regularly import Titchmarsh's novels; I adore them. Never really
enjoyed just Charlie and Tommy - some of the charm went away. Still did A+
gardens.

Bob Flowerdew with a
waist-length blond hair plait, who talks a great deal about rubber, and
doubleskin polytunnels . Camp, limp-wristed, flowing silk-shirt Lawrence
Llewellyn Bowen, a sultry pouter with bigger hair than Joan Collins and
only slightly less mascara..and his sidekick bit of rough, Diarmuid
Gavin. (All of them in longterm hetero partnerships IRL).

Janet.

Who did the gardens with all the concrete and steel...used to make me crazy.
A friend called them the Goth gardener - he struck me as very dark.

Haven't seen the others on BBCAmerica, but have seen LLB on decorating
shows. No thanks. BTW, don't give a rats a** about their private lives.

Is there ANYthing which can be conceived that has not already been

Perfect! Hope springs eternal.

I thing grammar is extinct in the public school system; teaching it impacted
students self esteem.


Yes, I know this to be true and possibly one of the most obnoxious
parenting I've seen to date. Everyone doesn't win. It's okay to
lose. Actually, we probably lose more than we win, so training to
lose gracefully is indelibly more important and relavent than the
inappropriate of self-agrandizement children are subject to. It makes
me very glad I never had children. I imagine it is a much harder job
to raise children today than it was when I was a child in the 50s.

Does it count that my garden was ON television?

Yes.

Oh good! My garden was on television more than once. If they saw it
now they'd wonder where or when the elephant would be coming through
the bush! It's wild back there.

I'll also be published next issue of Mandala magazine; a Tibetan
Buddhist magazine and the article is about gardening without killing.
I've been published before, but I think this will always be the
shining moment for me.

Actually, that was a direct quote from a retiring public school teacher.
She's gone to private school to (her quote) "where I can actually teach".
She's about 5-6 years older than me and was the only teacher my son said he
actually could respect, rather than just show respect.

related newsletters.
