    I thought if anything we had more pet close ups. No sign of box blight though. AF is in a much drier area than MD though

    Adam Frost is lovely. I like his accent. I am very envious of that gorgeous house!

    We've all got some sort of accent, so providing I can understand what's being said, I'm not complaining.   :)

    It's nice to have a bit of variety in GW so I found last night's programme refreshing.  Loved AF's planting in his formal gravel path to soften it, and that water/box hedge feature will be stunning when mature, I reckon.
    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    As soon as the dog appeared, I thought I wonder what @Hostafan1 is thinking.
    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    Same here :smiley:

    Animals in a garden? Disgusting!

    ah well, lock me in the stocks and pelt me with rotten vegetables. 
    I don't like pets, I love wild animals. I fail to understand the attraction of sharing your home with different species. Dogs, cats , budgies, gerbils, boa contrictors, tarantulas the lot. All lost on me.

    I liked his water troughs - I’m looking to get one myself water feature that doubles as something my toddler can play with.  She loves water.

    they looked nice with fresh calm water, but I’m thinking they actually take an hours maintenance per week each?

    I enjoyed it - and Adam's garden.  I particularly liked his description "cultivated chaos" for his gravel garden - I've always called my habit of letting things self-seed "lazy gardening" - now I know better.  And Adam's garden is a lot closer to mine climate-wise - in the dry East side of England - so perhaps a bit more relevant for me.

    Being just down the road, Adam’s garden is literally closer to mine. 

    I liked:
    his lovely house and garden
    the raised beds made of corten steel
    his lack of success in sowing agretti, but he was still much more successful than me!
    the cat and the dog
    the wonderful water feature he was building. I would like to see it in a year’s time and to hear if it was colonised by algae
    his enthusiastic delivery
    the feature on elder bushes
    that child sized spade he used
    his wildlife garden

    wasn’t so bothered about:
    the chap with the indoor plants
    the feature on bees
    the piece about John Brookes
