Lovely weather for......?
 

One of my neighbours was mowing his lawn this morning - a tad
premature I would suggest. Although he often asks for gardening advice
he rarely takes any notice. So I lit a bonfire, with the breeze
blowing in his direction, to encourage him to abandon this noisy
exercise and go back indoors and watch Countryfile. It worked!

Yesterday I was talking to guy who had just bought some new gardening
equipment. He asked me if I was aware that an anagram of Garden is Danger.
I wasn't.

Well, obviously. You should have tried to make a mangonel - that's
much easier to do, starting with one of those.

Well we all remember how dodgy it got when Dennis Moore the Highwayman
came after our lupins.

Sprinkle it with ground black pepper and repeatedly hit it with the flat
end of a spud-masher.

One of my lawns needed mowing this weekend .. the other didn't .. so I put
it off, but I'll probably have to do it next weekend. (NB: I'm in SE
London). However, when I do it, I shan't be put off, but I use a push
mower, which isn't quite as intrusive.

Known that one for ages!, but then I do the Times Xword when my brain's
working :~)
