Titchmarsh comeback?

That was because of the fashion interest; Tommy's shorts and Charlie's free-range teeshirts. In GF the garden owner, in every case, just happened to be going away for two days. They would always return at 5.00pm., even Nelson Mandela arrived back at 5. At 4.40 pm., there would always be major jobs that still needed doing. There would always be a heavily loaded wheel barrow which could only be pushed by Charlie requiring her to thrust her 'free range' chest out. mark |

I found it quite interesting from the pov of seeing what design they'd come up with but the whole 'tension' thing became a bit tiresome. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com Shrubs & perennials.
