When are we going to get rid of the political cross-posting from this
group
and get back to the topic of GARDENING?

There is no way to stop people from other ngs from cross posting in
here.

Apparently there is, I have instructions but haven't got round to using them
yet because I recognise and nuke. I can post the details here if anyone
asks.

No there isn't. It only stops them being downloaded, or kills them on
your computer.

If you want to live in a secluded world where only like minded idiots
frequent, why not start your own moderated group?

Only do it in secret please, most of us really don't care.



I thought we had done............ it's called uk.rec.gardening and peace
usually reigns nicely here thanks.

I always understood it to be an Oak Tree. The reason why I remember is
because I couldn't see how it was going to get down, "They step on an Oak
Leaf and wait until Autumn"

The elephant is a graceful bird,
It hops from twig to twig.
It makes its nest in a rhubarb tree
And whistles like a pig.

I should have been more specific: I meant amongst it. They hide under
the old leaves, you know, so be very careful if you're clearing out the
litter at the end of the season. Rake a hibernating hippo out and it's
awfully difficult to roll it back again.

I had to use all my duvets, Blunketts and eiderdowns one year to cover
one up where it lay. Took me ages to dry them out again in the spring.

Hippos are chic wading birds,
They squat in seaside marshes:
You never notice them because
They all wear false moustaches.
