I don't know if you can get them, but..
I'd like a 14-foot-long string on a reel for marking out veg beds WITH a knot on the string every six inches so I can space onions properly!
I really ought to sit by the fire with nice music to listen to and start knotting, shouldn't I...
Happy Christmas!
Alison.

I've already bought it, a 4-stroke replacement for the useless Mantis cultivator. That's my Honda one, it starts first pull.

I would like a nice big trailer load of well rotted manure please. Plus, a nice kind gentleman to unload it and place onto lottie for me.

I'll make sure he gets loads of nice cuppas and a proper bacon butty. Might even throw in a plate of Scouse too. :twisted:
Lots of love

That's TWO presents Lizzie; don't be greedy now. The sad thing is if I had to choose I'd choose the manure and I suspect you'll be the same. :lol: :lol:

Ideally - James Martin for a day in his knee length swede and leather wellies please.

Otherwise - a hose that doesn't kink.

Either way - I'm easily pleased! :lol:

James Martin in a knee length what? Do you have wrinkly tights then Tigger?

I'd like a shed on my allotment :cry:

You obviously didn't see his photo shoot Chantal! There again, I can't spell - he was wearing knee length suede and leather boots.

Sorry - got to go and have a lie down now......... :twisted:

Hello Herby

A plate of Scouse is our local stew. Made from the left over sunday joint with loads of veg, pearl barley, lentils or anything you like. Each family has their own receipe, the same as every region has a version.

My ideal Christmas present would be the boys from my favourite band doing a one of concert for me and selected fans. They'd sing all my favourite songs then we'd go out for a curry.

James Martin in suede and leather boots would be good too. Now, Bono is leather boots....

Oi Tigger, move over. I need to lie down :shock:

Losos..... behave yourself

Jopsy. I'll have the baby. No problem. Just tell me when
Lots of love

Lizzie
