And there was me hoping it was going to be Dragon, i've heard there are Dragons in Wales, although thinking about it theres one that lives down the road from me. :shock: :D :wink:

All this isn't helping Lizzie with her raspberries, what a shame. :twisted:

Alan, starter for ten, is it a welsh or english basis? :wink:
Do not put off thanking people when they have helped you, as they may not be there to thank later.

Hope you got your raspberries in OK.

Oh Herby

You certainly know how to charm a lady :twisted:

The raspberry canes are still in the packaging. Was planning to do them today but my back went so, hopefully, they'll go in the ground tomorrow. With the help of the lootie Secretary and Grocks husband, my plot is being transformed. The 2 gorgeous chappies have put a patio down for me so now I just have to mark out where the lawns going and the flower borders.

The raspberries are going at the side of the lawn as a marker to the veg end of the plot. I have to say that, without the help of Grock, Mr Grock and the Secretary, i'd have packed the plot in a few months ago. However, because they have put down the patio for me it has madelife so much easier for me.

Three cheers for Mr Grock and Mr Secretary

hip hip horrrrraaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy
Lots of love

Oh Lizzie - that's not good news for you.

I can recommend an excellent osteopath who's kept my OH mobile and working (at 55) despite breaking his spine in 2 places (at 15)!

Dear Lizzie so glad you have had some help to get the work done, i can just imagine you there, sitting on a chair, stick in hand shouting orders out. :)
Only joking, hope your back feels a bit better tomorrow, or i'll have to pop up there and sort you out. :wink:
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

Thanks Tigger, but can't have osteopathic treatment. I wouldn't mid either, i've done everything else. Maybe if Herby turns up things might click into place :twisted:
