Seconded.

I'm suffering from a touch of "man flu" at the moment but this cheered me up no end.

If only women could understand this terrible affliction, David!!!  Keep bearing up (manfully) and we wish you rid of the torment as soon as possible.  Be brave old pal.


He-he ... expect the imminent backlash ...  ;D

Ah. sympathy at last. Conversation as of five minutes ago.

She: "Sitting at that computer isn't going to do you any good. The front path needs sweeping, the cats have been in again left you a dollop to shift and soil all over the path"

He: "But I'm not feeling well"

She: You'll feel better doing something useful and getting some fresh air"

They don't understand :'(

The title photograph of October's IRG is wonderful - if only it was in my own garden. Is there any chance of some of these fine images being produced by the SRGC as prints? I would certainly be very happy to have this one on my wall and to send to friends.

We must give some thought to the matter of prints, Tim...it hadn't occurred to us!

I would think that most of our contributors would not mind if someone asked me to send them a larger size file for their own use........... ::)

 You can see it at www.edraianthus-seeds.dk  



More seeds can also be found in the list  of Josef Jurasek..... see here.... http://www.zahradnictvi-praha.cz/data/semena2011.html

Oh dear.. because I needed more seed lists to tempt me....  ;)

Ooops-- only to EEC countries, nevermind, temptation avoided ;)

Also, that link does not take you to a thread mentioning Josef Jurasek, just  reply window for this thread....

First IRG of 2012 is now online...
though, of course, the speedy 'fleurbleue' found it ages ago for plantes-passion! {plantes-passion.forumactif.fr }

Nicole, you are marvelous, well done!  8)

I've spent most of today catching up on the back issues! Thoroughly enjoyed every second of it  ;D ;D. What a wonderful addition to an already amazing site.
