I think the prickly tree is a Robinia Pseudoacacia. I have two and they send up prickly suckers all over the place. They are quite attractive and have white flowers a bit like laburnum. The French dip the flowers in batter and deep fry them.
Geoff, I hadn't imagined you had an OH, first time I've seen you mention her. Is the son going to Spain too?
Going to England on Sunday, but sad, for a funeral. The cat has gone and stabbed her eye with something so she'll have to go to the kennels with the dog - needs drops 4 times a day. She usually stays at home as she's a half wild stray, and a neighbour feeds her. Another expense after Christmas, vet and kennels.
Going off to make a pork casserole.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Yes that's the one Lizzie. Forunately not really mine to controll and we usually nip the suckers straight away. This was behind the GH. Have learnt my lesson, will always double check now. Behind the GH is one of those untackled areas, as is all along the boundary on that side of garden, one day it will be in the plan!
