The Officer in Charge of Gardening (aka Jackie)
I thought I'd post an extra photo today.

This my wife Jackie, hard at work this afternoon in our back garden "jungle".

Several of you have commented about the nice flowers in our garden........... this is the reason why!

I was helping by taking photos and generally keeping out of the way :-)))

Xata, Fred Fouarge, Jean-luc Drouin, Rosalyn Hilborne and 17 other people have particularly liked this photo

Hahaha,sie hat dir die schönen Motive zum Fotografieren gelassen lieber Keith,aber irgendwann muss man über einen Dschungel hergehen,man sieht,das sie dich anlächelt und das ist doch ein schönes Geschenk lieber Keith :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Tagesausklang,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))

I shall have to help out eventually, but I always try and put it off as long as I can. I'm not very good with plants, but I get called upon to do things that just need some "brute force and ignorance" :-)))

Enjoy the rest of your day Güni.

It's lovely to see the brains instead of the brawn!!! She obviously is a brilliant gardener, and as you say, it's thanks to her that you have such a lovely garden. When she's finished, she's very welcome to come to my home, there's so much for her to have a go at!!!!

I can't argue with that Jenny...........I usually get called upon to do anything that needs brute force and ignorance :-))

Thanks for your lovely comments............unfortunately I won't be able to release her to work in anyone else's garden :-))

Your approach is much the same as mine, Keith. Anyway, when people are good at what they do I can only make things worse.

Nice to meet you Jackie. It seems you are like my wife Eileen, with an extra helping of green fingers whilst your husband simply goes click, click! (only joking Keith).

I admire your fence my friend.

Cheers. Herb
