One finds the darnedest things on Facebook.  Here's a "crevice garden" that just screams to be planted ;)

Mark - that is brilliant! Shows how good it is to go on Facebook. (I have a horrible feeling this might attract more rock gardeners than the plants...).

Yes, I saw that blog, these people are such artists, their use of rock and natural materials in the landscape are delightfully whimsical.  I like the photo of the white cat in a red pail :)

If Roger left THAT kind of car lying round the place, I wouldn't mind at all. Closest we can come at present is a Yamaha motorbike he didn't put away in the shed and it is now totally covered by an adventitious seedling of Clematis akebioides, which I'm learning is a real menace.
