Default Fumigation!

Honest to god, I feel as if this group needs fumigating!

Usually at about this time of year, we all discuss what gardening goodies we
hope to get for Christmas - anyone care to contribute?

I'd like lots and lots of rose bushes and to persuade Ray to find me
somewhere to plant them. ;-) At present, we're working on a compromise,
which is to put up some posts on the tea room lawn and loop chain between
them. Up and along these we will grow roses and honeysuckle, and the more
scented the better. I think this is more likely to be a birthday present in
January, given that I've only just asked for it. ;-)

So - what about you - what do you want Father Christmas to bring you?!

Peace and tranquility in this newsgroup where you and you partner from up
north stop siding with each other to take swipes at people you do not
approve of. Where you have to have the last word and control the comments of
the other newsgroup readers. Where nobody is as good as you and because you
gardened with Adam and you have ram it down everbodies throats.

How nice for the 'owners' to give up 'ownership' as a christmas present.

My hero was Scrooge before he got converted.
I get presents (mostly garden related) which end up in the bin. It's the
thought that counts. They all know what I don't like so they give me it.
They don't love me--sob.

It's because you only read(ish).

I found some plant waterers, plastic nozzles that screw onto a pop bottle,
on QVC's website. I've seen them for £1, £2 and £2.50 each at garden shows,
which always seemed a tad costly for 5 pennyworth of plastic. These were £15
for 30

I want everything somebody like me, who's just moved to their first house
with a garden, would want (fork, spade, hoe, rake, mower etc). So I'll
probably get a set of el cheapo implements that break within two weeks and
I'll have to buy them again properly in the sales. But that's what XMas is
all about!

I would like a husband who bothers to weed his vegetable patch so that my
garden does not sprout weeds all summer. Alas, bigamy is against the law!
Actually, I know what I'm getting: I bought the RHS Guide to Pruning and
Training Techniques last week. As soon as I got home, His Royal Weediness
snatched it from my hand and declared it to be a Christmas present. I'm
finding it hard to know whether to be {:-(( or {)))!

LOL! You're like my stepson. Whenever we ask what he would like, he says
'nothing'. He genuinely dislikes Christmas and thinks it horribly
over-commercialised.

LOL with tears. Not his, unfortunately ... I don't know where he's hidden
the book. I like the way you're thinking, though.
