Doesn’t look as if there are many Percy Thrower’s on this thread. Ah I forgot about Norman Upton, he’s a keen gardener.
Cheers Dave.

Hiya,
Not forgetting our Norman Ingram he’s obviously doing what most green fingered
guys are doing at this time of year and “interfering with his taters”.
thanks harry, long retired.

Cheers Dave.

Hiya,
Ang a canny sprinkle of red diesel round the roots of the hedge will soon make
for one less job in the garden, that’s one job I hated the snipping wasn’t bad
but the picking up and disposing of the pruning’s was a job I hated.
thanks harry, long retired.

The daffodils and primroses are out this way, but haven’t heard the cuckoo yet.
Cheers Dave.

i don’t go for diesel on the hedge harry . when we moved into our bungalow the previous tenant had an over mature hedge and having had it cut down , tried to kill the stumps with diesel . when i started to dig them out the stench of diesel was overpowering , the only cure was to concrete it over once the stumps were out . cheers , dave

If you want to kill a hedge, road salt will do the job Dave. Harry is a townie, he can’t help it.
Cheers Dave.

No spuds, no tomatoes seeds spouting, no plugs ordered, I have felt too tattered myself, I am being to think old age is creeping up on me, until at the snooker club I was teasing a Lithuanian girl in her twenty’s about not wearing her mimi skirt, she kept telling me it was too cold. So now it is warming up, I asked her what date, ( Meaning when she would be wearing her skirt) she said to me I don’t work friday! I said she wanted a date with me. That is why I think I have my MOJO back.

You are worse than a couple of wild ducks that I was watching running around the field in front of here Norm. The drake was wanting to tread the
female, sounds as if you were after this Lithuanian girl to do the same.

Hiya,
I remember arriving at Oswestry in the early 50s to do my basic army training
the news went round like wildfire that the military added Bromide to tea In
the canteen to curb the ardour of the new intake of 18 year old’s, I very soon
learned it wasn’t true when being dragged from my bed on my first day of my
new life for the next two years and found myself standing on three legs which
I must admit was normal in those halcyon days as a teenager.
thanks harry, long retired.

You must have been at Park Hall, about half a mile from the spinal injuries centre where a lot of us do a different type of training, and still do.
Cheers Dave.

Hiya,
Yes Dave the first two weeks of my army career was spent at Park Hall then
it was across to Kimnel Park near Rhyl for the remainder of driver training
before being sent to a service regiment for the remainder of my time, all of
my remaining service was spent in the Far East, first Korea then Malaya.
thanks harry, long retired.

I’ve been to Kinmel Bay Harry, but haven’t followed you onto the far East. I’ve never held a passport. Have been to the Isle of Wight.
