Glove miracle!

For what I think is the first time ever, I seem to have a hole in the left thumb of my latest pair of gardening gloves, while the right glove is still intact. I am looking forward to selecting a new partner glove from my basket of spare left gloves. Funny how little things like this can make your day!

    We too have a box of one hand gloves. Fortunately I am left handed so the left one gets holes and my wife is right handed so the right one gets holes. Be nice if we both wore the same size gloves though.

    What I need is to fiind a single, left-handed local friend who's a gardener.

    :D Very pleased for you Green Magpie, predominantly right handed here but some left hook tendencies so I get a bit of both.

    But I have to ask.
    Do they have to be single. Will there be glove swapping jealousy, do you fear reprisals from glove swappers significant others?

    Well, that would be my concern - I wouldn't want to be responsible for a marriage break-up just for the sake of a glove with no holes in it.

    :D Very thoughtful of you, though there are some who might welcome it, gardeners small ads, and pampas grasses.....Glove swapping parties.
