Some of us here have known each other a very long time. Not quite as
simple as you make out.

Too right!

.... and aren't gardeners, true gardeners, friendly people in general who
will share cuttings and advice, plants and help? I always thought it
was, it has been my experience here anyway.

I just approached this newsgroup in the same way, pooling ideas, gaining
advice and swapping cuttings etc. Most gardeners like to share their
gardens as well if they can to interested visitors!

Or maybe it's like anything in life? You get out what you put in?

Yes, that's so.

It hasn't been mine, sadly :-(

Same here. In this area the gardeners among us are always coming to share
ideas - and seedlings, plants and produce too. None of us is a professional
though, none of us is a specialist in anything. None of us every tells
anyone how to do something, only how they do it. We're all just bumbling
along and that's the way we like it.

Well, I'd like to think so.
