Personally, I would rather regard the first sighting of a swallow as a harbinger of summer, not Boris !

Also lovely in South Croydon, unlike last Friday when we engulfed by smog.

We tend not to have too many brown patches in our garden as we have quite a few acidic loving plants which l keep well watered.....the strawberry plants seem to thrive on it too.qbman1 wrote:..and I'll bet you blame the brown patches on the lawn on the dog !Onelife wrote:qbman1 wrote:Are you anything to do with that "Naked Gardener" chap down Malmesbury way ?!Onelife wrote:.....l've been caught with my pants down before

My old dad's first job was in a nursery and apparently all the gardeners were encouraged to wee in the water butt. Good for the tomatoes, apparently !!
