The Hissing of Camomile Lawns
Crikey, chaps, little did I think that my first, timid posting on this my
first newsgroup would unleash such a spat! It does seem to have a ritualised quality to it , what up here in Scotland we call "flyting", but it has taken me aback. I thought gardeners would be peaceful, equable sorts... I do feel I must say I welcomed all replies - I am experimenting with camomile in the dark, as t'were, because I know no-one who grows it, and my gardening friends think I am quite insane, given the finicky labour entailed. I will add, at some risk, and pace Sacha, that snoozing on the roof of LaPuce's shed sounds OK to me, Peace to all, Dave |
