Why dont we FG'ers use garden tools as our avatars on other forums (maybe FG aswell) just to show support to Fg aswell as having our own little secret code?

What do you think??????

Up our lives today:-6
We could all be trowels! :wah:

I might end up in an oubliette for saying this but - just for the ears of the two of you.. um four ears.. or so - the avs do have secret meanings.

The first level of initiation involves surviving your introduction thread...

The second is when you come face to face with Nomad - many fail here

I dare not go on.. but suffice it to say that Lemons and the Terrible Tar pit feature down the track.

Just for you Six, I've changed my AV

A watering can to cool things down here when they get hot

A trowel for planting new seeds

And secateurs for pruning my posts when I ramble on

Guys.... In Oz if a bloke wants to insult another bloke he might call him a "tool".

Hush!!! Snooze. We dare not speak of those.

I would like to be a windchime, a pretty one hung in the garden, to make lovely music when the evening breeze blows.

Perfect Chonsi...I have 3 in my garden and 2 indoors by windows...I'm the only one who likes them, they drive everyone else 'nuts'.....I'm the only musical person in the family, guess that's why.

How did you know, Bez!! Honeysuckle is one of my favourite flowers!!!

Good Pam would go with that, but Bad Pam is arguing for this

Here in America, if you want to insult a woman, you might call her a "hoe".:yh_rotfl

Okay, so it was a poor attempt a humor, but it was at least an attempt.:wah:

AussiePam · Post by **AussiePam** » Tue Jun 20, 2006 6:13 am

GUFFAW Peg... And yup, I've heard the Santa Claus joke.. Ho Ho Ho

Bad Pam strikes again... Knew I had this wonderful wheelbarrow graphic somewhere

I guess I could be a broadcast spreader, since I post everywhere and it's generally manure, anyway. :rolleyes:

I see you more as a complex irrigation system.....quietly nurturing the roots..

Nomad's could be one of those mad watering thingies, that soaks you as you go passed....I think they're 'cat scarers'...

Nomad is a slip and slide...................

I am really liking you more every day. However, oubliette and Opus FGei are not in my country a#% vocabulary. Could you help me with these, Darlin'?

I always thought of Nomad as more of a rake!

hehehe

Perhaps I could be a tree, giving sanctuary to the birds and small animals and giving shade where needed............

Or maybe I could be the duck on the pond..........cos my hubby says when I fart it sounds like a duck quacking! :yh_rotfl :yh_rotfl

Great, my neighbors have 3 of them, I listen to them all night, maybe I need to sneak out in the stealth of night, and confisgate a couple for the garden.:p

I was looking for a watering can for me and found these, so I wondered if you might like them.

Glad you do. hehehe
