cuppa Twinnings tea = everyday variety, decaff + s/sk milk = no sugar +
Blue Ribband original choccy bic to hand
checking on my cat Marvellous Marty the Magnificent = beside me in his pet-bed under the wooden desk
on which new basic desktop printer will be put = on or around next payday ..... I mean upon the wooden desk not upon the cat
kicked my old basic Epson printer in frustration many many months ago
therapeutic for me for about 3 nano-seconds but really, really bad for the printer

Coward....suffice it to say......it was 10 ft tall... 8ft across and 18years old. O/H was asked by me to 'trim it back' whilst I was in Spain. I came home to find a stump as he had razed it to the ground...and a destroyed fence....
He is still paying for that error of judgement....

Why does an electrician need to know about gardening?I know why a gardener needs to know about electricity.
I cut through a relation's alarm cable while strimming (I lie, it was a brushcutter...the one with a 200mm diam metal serrated blade) her wild garden area.......didn't realise until the police grabbed me.
I did the same with a neighbours telephone cable....oh how we laughed....not!

I have some gorgeous conifers that I planted as miniature's around 15 years ago. They have grown a foot every year and are very low maintenance. That and grass cutting is as far as my interest now lies with gardening.
