What does lifetime guarantee mean? Your lifetime? If it's the product's lifetime, it means that it's guaranteed until it stops working. Very useful as in 90% of the three people we paid to express a preference said they would definitely recommend it.

A bit like an advert for seedless oranges which stated "At the first pip the guarantee will expire". Lame joke only understood by those who remember the speaking clock.
Had a replacement ceanothus delivered today from Gardening Express for a plant that was small, spindley with a poor root system. Had to check the garden to make sure it wasn't the same one they had delivered last week. Oh well, you live and learn.
THat made me laugh out loud. OH too when I told him but Possum just rolled her eyes at the oldies and technology.
Mind you, she did have to show me how to find the number pad on my mobile phone today so I could dial up for a message somebody left. I do tell everyone not to call my mobile but send a text if they must. Rarely call anybody on it and they're in the phone's "book".

I don't think this is curmudgeonly, I think this is a justified complaint. People who let their hedges grow over the pavement. The pavement is part of the public highway, not part of your front garden. You are making life difficult for people who need mobility aids, and even for able-bodied people with buggies, shopping trollies, suitcases on wheels. This is especially so where there are other obstacles on the pavement such as trees, lampposts, cars parked with two wheels on the pavement.
As most of us know, if my neighbour's tree or bush overhangs my property, I'm allowed to cut it level with the boundary and offer them the severed parts. Does anyone know what the law allows when it obstructs a public footpath? In the country, landowners are required to keep public footpaths clear. Doesn't the same law apply in town streets?
2 grumps today. My neighbour is putting up a new shed about a foot off my south boundary. It's already taller than his existing shed and he hasn't built the roof yet. He dug out a load of ground to get a level space for it and has just leaned rocks against the almost vertical cut to retain it. The fence is also his and is so rotten that my hedge is now holding it up. It's all going to be hidden behind the shed though so I doubt he has any plans to fix it.
Also mahonia might be a great plant for wildlife but it's even more antisocial than the neighbours. I've just had the pleasure of cutting them back after the birds have finished the berries and I've probably had enough acupuncture to cure myself of all kinds of ailments. I can also look forward to finding spikey leaves tucked in all sorts of places for months to come.
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
josusa47. First contact should be your local council. They have the power to make people cut back anything obstructing the footpath, and to do it themselves and bill the householder if they fail to comply.
