    We had a problem with our post code, there are two bungalows with the same name and the other one insisted that her postcode was so and so, which was ours.  I phoned the council, they said the other one shouldn’t be using that code, I said you try telling her, she’s a witch, the council said they’d get one just for us, it’s all filtered through to all satnavs now and everyone finds us, right to the door. 
    Took some sorting out though.

    Some of the villages to which I deliver only have one post code for the whole village and not a house number between them.

    Maybe we should accentuate the positive for a while.  Lots of lovely plants have come to our gardens from the USA tho I can do without "prairie" planting myself.  Thinking of trees, shrubs, perennials, bulbs........   Yum!

    I like the mass planting of flowers but not all the grasses in "prairie" planting.
