Not so important to me, but it might be to you, if you like flowers and that.Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15743685798068014455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099099432720184584.post-71653867254601417932011-02-10T21:46:06.278+00:002011-02-10T21:46:06.278+00:00You've whetted my appetite – both for the gard...You've whetted my appetite – both for the garden and the restaurant.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099099432720184584.post-82201984226212055932011-02-06T22:38:43.583+00:002011-02-06T22:38:43.583+00:00I think the whole project captures the imagination...I think the whole project captures the imagination of anyone with a bit of soul - old house, overgrown garden, brought back from the dead - and the more they cleared the garden, the more interesting it got.

Gladdened the heart to be honest that they just wanted to go back to a place for the sheer enjoyment of it.<br /><br />Isn't that what human life is supposed to be about?Williamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099099432720184584.post-63527874507149540412011-02-04T23:00:04.925+00:002011-02-04T23:00:04.925+00:00Nah, that's a car, innit?
