Impressive statistical reporting, Steve. :o

A word of caution that there were discussions previously,in these pages, did we not,about varieties not always being true from Wisley shop? Did you think that this does not seem to be a problem this season?

As to the biblical quotes..... I think you are not supposed to covet your neighbour's ass etc!!  ::)

Wow, just shows you how a moment's carelessness at the keyboard can land you in a whole lotta trouble..... :( :( :(
Steve

Haha,

We had a bull here that was a bit naughty about covering our neighbours heifers  :o  It would have been much less of a disaster if he'd just stuck with coveting.

So coveting is OK in my book  ;)

I suppose it depends on the quality of thy neighbour's ass? :-\ (Some people never mind the quality! ::))

A seller on Ebay used a link to my snowdrop web site to show what a snowdrop looks like. I have never thought how many people follow the Ebay auctions. The link resulted in 210 hits on my web site

I only see one Sharlockii listed and it has 'donkey ears'... which is right, isn't it? the one shown has got green tips... that's unusual ,isn't it?
