Oh...RESPECT re clinging to your punnet of redcurrants whist being attacked by wasps! I've only ever been stung by one at a time and found that painful so would hate to have multiple stings. I loved hearing about your tree hugging activity....what a great idea!<br />Bamboo....sighs...when we bought our house 24 years ago the whole garden was full of it, like you we have tried everything and still it pops up, it really is horrible tough and invasive.

I haven't really had any gory gardening disaster but I did once buy a new electric hedge cutter and the first time I used it you can guess what happened. Yup went straight through the cable in the first 5 mins lol. That cutter shot out my hands and must have shocked me cos the neighbour came running out to make sure I was ok lol. I refuse to use electrical garden tools now.Lindachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17307042289297886569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-21601441852047796472015-01-25T17:18:45.589+00:002015-01-25T17:18:45.589+00:00Great answers !

I still haven't bought the rose I chose, Mick was going to buy it as a Christmas gift for me but they weren't sending them out until February so I missed out.
