We have some of the visiting guests staying here tonight. *We will
have to have Lottie sleep in our room as some leave at 5a.m. and
Lottie is still nervous of strangers in the house.

A good thing, IMO. *Our Oscar Underfoot, the wire haired dachshund, *
goes off with monotonous regularity at the milk/paper man, Nursery
staff coming into the house, anyone knocking at the front door and the
postman. *Some of these people are in and out of here every day but we
still get the 'woofs' and in fact, we rely upon him to tell us that the
papers have been delivered each morning! *On Saturday, the papers are
rather later than normal but today he was barking at 07.30 and when Ray
went downstairs, sure enough, the papers and milk were there. * He's a
very good guard dog and that's a good thing, IMO.

Yes, our Lottie is a great Sentinel; she hears things before we do.
It's quite clear that she has a protective side, she is unhappy when
guests put their arms around me, in the French way, to give a slight
kiss on both cheeks; her tails drops and she moves in very close to
me. Last night I walked her about 11.30p.m. to shut up the hens and a
5 minute walk without a lead, she took off with such speed, she was
chasing a rabbit! After 2 commands she came back, looking sheepish
because she had ignored my first command. She snored all night long,
what with Edward snoring on one side and Lottie on my left, on the
floor in her bed; I felt very hemmed in! To keep slightly on topic,
she is digging down to Australia, I have never seen such huge holes in
the garden, any hints on anything to deter her?

I told you to eat more tomatoes. Oh no, that was prostate wasn't it

That reminds me of a question I need to ask in a different thread.

If it's about your prostate Darlink be sure to mark it OT.

LOL, I did notice. Isn't it a bit early to be worrying about your
tomatoes not ripening.. Lotsa time yet Gordon. When the time comes and
if you have any green tomatoes remind me to give you my recipe for chutney.

Yes, I suppose I'm a bit impatient. I have adjusted to leaving the
veg to grow at its own speed. :-)
Chutney? I don't think so, thanks.

Dear lady, if I walked away from every silly little shit I met I'd be

Just laugh at Mike the village idiot, as most of us do, and get on with the

Dear Fuchsia,

Please, please don't go on account of this arrogant length of irritation;
he's not worth it. *I'm in no position to speak, I know, having crawled back
under my stone a couple of years ago, but it would be the most horrendous
shame if you left. *You're one of the good guys. *If you really want to
protect your computer and yourself, you'd be better advised to beef up your
pc security with an extra firewall or similar. *These days, you really need
that protection anyway and it would be money well spent.

Please stay and continue to take part in this friendly group. *It's the
idiots we need to leave, not genuine people like you. *A certain invisible
person is merely a figment of your imagination. *Most of what he says is a
figment of his imagination. *Easy, then, to blot him out.

Do, please, stay.
Spider

Spider, we all missed you very much at the time you stopped posting;
it's great to have you and your gardening expertise back.

Good advice Janet, one I should take myself from time to time. Was it
you who gave me a cutting, rooted, of a Yew?

Judith

The message

from Judith in France contains these words:

"Gordon is terribly selective. *He has arrived in a gardening group
that I have been in since the year dot. *Now he and Bobbie, as Naughty
Nancy are making silly comments in there about prostrate problems.
It's gone down like a brick; the regulars are totally ignoring it; but
in private they ask, who on earth are they?????????????? *It would be
a waste of time asking them to stop their crude behaviour; no doubt
this post will spur them onto more".

Judith, you posted the above in another group. Google's archive of
urg, proves your version
above, is simply untrue. Every urgler who read that thread , knows your
version is wrong.
Ophelia, made a reference to prostate and tomato, which was a follow-up
to a post on the same topic in urg in May.

Gordon, you have caused trouble for me in other groups, do not bring
it here;

The shoe is on the other foot, and wedged firmly in your own mouth.

urglers don't know you yet,

why do you say that? He's been posting here months, and many urglers
knew him before then.

but it has not gone unnoticed
that you and Bobbie followed me in here from the other groups.

Don't be absurd.

For
the sake of my friends here; I will not get into a flame war with you,
now leave it. No doubt your other 2 friends Anne Jackson and Janet
Barraclough will be along next to fuel your fire.

I will merely point out, that Bobbie and Graham are keen gardeners,
live in the UK, and
(as you say) know Anne J and myself from other groups. Both Anne J and
myself, have been posting to urg
longer than yourself. Many urg posters also meet Anne, Bobbie,
Gordon, you and myself in
several other groups.

Janet
