Hello Forkers, Just a quick peep to say hello from Bangor. Superlative meal in Donaghadee last night. Met a lady on the shore who was photographing the aurora borealis. Not visible to the naked eye, but by some magic it showed on photos!! That's the closest I have ever been to such beauty. We froze to death but utterly worth it.
I don’t usually comment on here because I don’t have BBC but found the programme on YouTube with adverts. Not bad but I agree with others that I don’t want to see so many shots of 🐕 🐕 dogs.
I found the cactus man really interesting which l didn't expect to do, and learnt some new things.
I see Sue Kent got rid of the phormium overhanging her steps. I was watching Toby Buckland cutting it back on one of the recent compilation programmes and thought personally l'd have removed it altogether.
Looking forward to seeing Adam's garden next week.
OH and Possum have taken to having a quiet bet on how long it takes me to fall asleep once GW starts. I saw enough to think Nick B's ladder was a fun idea as long as he secures it well at each end, be pleased those overgrown phormiums had gone and be excited to know it'll be Adamin charge next week.
Dozed thru the rest and will FF the cactuses on the rerun as I'm not interested in them at all. Having two of each here, gardening with cats and dogs around seems normal to me but I don't want time wasted on long, lingering shots on GW.

"The price good men (and women) pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men (and women)."
Monty's garden looked flooded around the edges, Sue Kent's idea of filling raised beds looked interesting and I agree with her husband those steps look dangerous, I'd love to have the room to grow cactus like the rocker very envious of his collection.
I think Nick Bailey is not always given much time on the programme. I hope the next segments are a bit longer, because he often has an interesting way of gardening, with inventive ways of doing things. I would prefer there to be fewer segments per programme and more depth.
Sorry to witness the demise of the forum. 😥😥😥😡😡😡I am Spartacus
