An infestation in the Garden ?

Post by Bruv »

I only ever enter this forum via the back door, Latest Posts to be exact.

Had to search to find where to post this......I only ever seem to jump in on others topics.

But I have just noticed an investation of garden questions, all of a sudden.

Is this a seasonal thing ?

Are they ALL from English posters just in from the garden ?

Having tea on the patio and getting their questions answered here after a day in the vegetable patch ?

heck of a time with tomatoes this year.. yellow ones coming fine, red fighting me all the way.. peppers are bursting off their plants for some ungodly reason.



and I've come up with a new strategy to deal with the danged rabbits.. I'll plant beans for a 5th time and the varmints will have become so fat that the cats and dogs in the neighborhood can catch them finally..:sneaky:







What was the question again?:-2
I expressly forbid the use of any of my posts anywhere outside of FG (with the exception of the incredibly witty 'get a room already' )posted recently.

Folks who'd like to copy my intellectual work should expect to pay me for it.:-6

I posted expecting to get the Brits to reply, but they are all watching telly with their feet up after a hard day in the garden.

All the replies were from over the water.

It's been raining all day here and besides, I can't find my garden for the jungle ;)

No, we just had a new member join up that wanted to talk gardening, the gardening forum needed some action.

All the replies were from over the water. Do you know what i've been doing? I had friend requests on facebook from FG members and i had to clean my site up before i could accept them incase they were offended :yh_rotfl I had to delete loads of pics, comments etc and it took ages. Then i had to de-register all the people i didn't really like and it took hours. :wah: I came to the conclusion that it's better to have less friends on facebook and them be true friends then have just a load of contacts who write such interesting stuff as 'I'm going to put the kettle on'. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

No Bruv,



All of these gardening threads were brought up the other day by a self-promoter who had a link to their business in their profile...This person stopped bringing up old threads when they realized that a mod had deleted the link:wah:
