Ah, but what Else is down the back of it:

"Made from concrete, this is a perfect replica, right down to the
concrete coins down the back."

are you suggesting that all our lost stanley knives are irretrievably
trapped in it's sandy limestony matrix, snared mid shedspace-transfer?

But now you have the idea that perhaps you'd like to cover your growbags
with something that makes them look not like growbags, and perhaps with
something you could make yourself.

*shrug* It's the same way I look at a lot of those "not on the high street"
type catalogues, and get ideas for artycrafty type things that I may one day
get around to making.

Oh, I was very impressed with how it looked! But I wouldn't want one in my
garden, and can you imagine the pain the first time you got home half drunk
and forgot it was made of concrete??

I had a long chat with the manager of a poshish furniture shop one day,
when at a loose end I wandered round his shop stealing ideas. He thought
this was very sensible given how much the stuff cost and how little
chance I had of actually buying any.

Sensible manager. Every person who walks through the door is a potential
customer, ""OR"" will talk of his experience to his friends who 'MIGHT' be a
customer :-))

Therefore, each and every person MUST/SHOULD be treated with respect, even
if said manager or sales staff is working under pressure and feel that a
short, sharp, snappy response is all that is required :-((((((((((((

One only thinks of things like that if it is in their mind already :-((

I say it is all down to how they were brought up :-((

Respectfully yours

Also the shop was otherwise deserted so I guess he was a) bored and b)
keen to make it look less like the Marie Celeste.

But learning a bit of body-language would save 'em pestering me with
"Can I help you?" when I'm radiating a strong "Leave me alone" glow.

No mention of it here - though it does claim they have "Grow your own".
