Overheard in a Surrey garden

"Look, I am the human. I am in charge here. I'm trying to help - are you listening to me? If you scratch me again, I won't just put you on the compost heap, I'll put you in the wheelie-bin, so there."

  1. Hilarious! Good to see at least the snowdrops are thriving in your garden.

  2. Quite right too - it's important to let plants know who's in charge. Thanks for visiting my blog.

  3. Hi Emily, I know those words so well! They're usually followed by, 'right, that does it, don't say I didn't warn you'! Bob.

  4. Well since the culprits in this case were brambles, they never really stood much chance. I'm amazed how fewer there are than last year.

  5. There was a lot of "let go, you stupid rose" in my garden today (I know, pruning terribly late, but it's been too cold and now I have everything to do at once).
