"Magwitch" wrote in message ... Des Higgins muttered: "Alan Gould" wrote in message ... In article , Des Higgins writes I got to like him from his column in the Observer (I have no idea if it is still running). Yes, Monty Don's articles still appear weekly in the Sunday Observer. Those articles used to be fantastic. They were very stylish and passionate when most other gardening columns were about how to kill greenfly on leeks. I cannot imagine what he can write about after nearly 10 years of it though. Why the past tense? I suppose the great thing about gardening is that every year is different, and there is always something to learn or pass on. Sorry; that does indeed look odd. It is just that I used to read them when I lived in England (1995,1996) and have not read them since then. They were great articles then but I really cannot imagine he can maintain that level of passion and fun for all the years since then. Somehow Monty has... Sunday's not Sunday without a mug of coffee, feet up on kitchen table and Monty Don. I think they are on-line, but no pretty pictures. Christopher Lloyd on Saturday morning in the (durty pinko liberal) Guardan was also fantastic but for completely different reasons. Agreed. Great Dixter is one of the 'must see' gardens, my brother worked there as part of his 'year out' and was inspired. I would love to see it. I have seen it on TV and in books and it looks fantastic. Great gardens, winter or summer. I enjoy reading them more than watching 4his GW presentations. -- Alan & Joan Gould - North Lincs. |
