Default Garden Disasters

Is your garden more gaff than gorgeous? Did the man of the house do something rickety with the rockery? Did you dig yourself a pond only to only to see the water vanish, leaving the goldfish gasping? Then you may be in urgent need of a little Garden ER! Contact us now to let us know what’s gone wrong and how the Garden ER team can help.

We’re looking for DIY garden projects that have gone seriously wrong, don’t work, look terrible or simply didn’t live up to your hopes. We want to meet the perpetrator of the gardening ‘crime’, help them put it right and finally win them a pardon from their long-suffering ‘victim’.

Actually, my wife's back gave out before she finished digging the veggie
garden. Why don't you pop over and finish it for her

Thanks

Maybe the following story will be of use.



An aging man lived alone in Ireland. His only son was in Long Kesh
Prison, and he didn't know anyone who would spade up his potato garden.

The old man wrote to his son about it, and received this reply, "For
HEAVENS SAKE, don't dig up that garden, that's where I buried the
GUNS!!!!!"

At 4 A.M. the next morning, a dozen British soldiers showed up and dug
up the entire garden, but didn't find any guns.

Confused, the man wrote to his son telling him what happened and asking
him what to do next.

His son's reply was: "Just plant your potatoes."

Mad dog Republicans to the right. Democratic spider webs to the left. True conservatives, and liberals not to be found anywhere in the phantasmagoria
of the American political landscape.

America is not broke. The country is awash in wealth and cash.
It's just that it's not in your hands. It has been transferred, in the
greatest heist in history, from the workers and consumers to the banks
and the portfolios of the uber-rich.
