Noooo! I love Carol Klein! That lovely gravelly voice!
Now Rachel de Thame makes me reach for the off switch pretty damn quick.
She once advised planting Paper White narcissi indoors for early flowering - omitted to mention they smell of burnt rubber. Had obviously never done what she was advising!

At least its not just me that has mean thoughts about others!

I like Carol Klein - at least she's not frightened to get her hands dirty!!

no, no, it's not dirty hands that bothers me
she just winds me up
I don't want to cause offence-the world would be a sad place if we all liked the same people
I just wondered if it was just me
Herby-your mother !!

Well it's true isn't it-the saying
As for you Herby, I bet your not being able to help yourself has gotten you into trouble over the years!!

I actually think she is the best character on there along with Joe, Monty is a bit up his own polytunnel if you get my drift, Mr T was far better, with Pippa Greenwood. Carol makes good sense and has a strong northern accent, which is a bonus for me being a Mancunian.

Compo I also am a Mancunian!
I love Mr T
