    I don’t like my neighbours being able to see me in my garden. 
    Is there an evergreen tree which will quickly grow to 38 feet by 17 feet and block the view? I don’t want anything that I have to look after.
    Lol, I need it to block a view of the shard and I’d like it to have flowers all year 
    Scented flowers of course.  Oh, and it mustn't be poisonous, or harbour pests.

    This long spell of dry, hot weather has encouraged me to spend more time in the garden, and some of the plants are kind of drooping; why would that be?

    I have 8 cats.  How do I guarantee they poo in my neighbour's garden and not mine?

    I have removed my whole garden and replaced it with plastic. I would love to attract wildlife. Please advise.

    Just cute disney wildlife I hope. None of that nasty other stuff with all their creepy legs waving testicles. :#
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    How can I ensure that my neighbours behave as I want them to at all times, without my having to speak to them?

    I'm in Birmingham and we get our water from Wales.  The stuff in the bottles isn't nearly as good so I don't waste my money.
    I'm in Wales and I'm convinced our good stuff is being piped over the border. The water here tastes like the sheep have been swimming in it.

    Remove all clothing. Apply honey to skin. Lie down. Wait.

    Great thread.   :D

    I've just got into trouble with OH, laughing uproariously at this thread while he's trying to watch the football... and then he wants to know what I'm laughing at...  
    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
