errrrrrrrrrrrm the fauna usually arrives on its own legs or wings, or slime trail ... Flora, on the other hand - a punnet of petunias gives a good colourful and long-lasting display ...

Gardening is done! And snails happily munching on dandelion! Got pricked by a stupid thistle! Im sure it's left barbs in my hand!

Now, if anyone local is a good gardener, I would love to employ your services to plant some nice flora and fauna for me! I can't pay in cash but I make superb cups of tea and coffee and I bake "buy" lovely cakes!!
For a man to truly understand rejection, he must first be ignored by a cat.

Dogs believe they are human. Cats believe they are God.

No amount of time can erase the memory of a good cat, and no amount of masking tape can ever totally remove his fur from your couch.

You are going to hate me, but that the best way is to uproot each one, taking care not to leave any of the root system behind.  No nasty chemicals for any of you.

PS yes, this is what I do myself  ;)
