Kabu this was your garden that you showed last week. I was going to illustrate the Wizard's magic but I hope you can see beyond the picture.

Re: Kabu
With luck and no ground frost we might have another six weeks.
I did study your garden and saw a witch hiding and three little rascals among the flowers and another strange little chap looking out of hole in the shed.
The garden
Well bless my Gizzard, said the Wizard.
Well beg my pardon, but this garden
has potential, for magical diagnosis.
Of course in the light of day it fades away.
We night Fly by Wizards like a bit of fun
and after doing my washing I had begun
to wonder if I could cast a few innocent spells.
I might need a girl friend ,it might depend,
yes she does look like a witch, just a twitch
of my new wand and one can look beyond
into her spirit . She will soon move from
that stick, of course I don't have to prove
anything so these three little chaps will move
and that little rascal peeping from that box
can join the party. We can all go and sit in the car
I have brought primrose wine it won't go far
but it does not need a lot it just hits the spot.
Wizards say I am off my rocker most of the day
But I like doing strange things just to prove I can do it
my way.
I will not mark my little spells lest I turn unbelievers
into egg shells.

Re: FS
Well it has been raining here ever since FS. It is surprising what some ladies will say about their hubbies.

Re: Pat
No, I guess not Pat, my brother says that I tell of incidents just to suit the purpose.
I put it down to the fact that I had to tell untruths constantly, when helping my Father during the times of rationing. Have you any bananas.''Sorry ,' ' Tins of red salmon?' 'Sorry.' 'Strong nicker elastic? No I needed that for my catapult.' You get the idea.

Re: Taps
I'll tell you a funny tale Taps. Arthur my brother bought a Down jacket last week.
He was thrilled with it for a couple of days. The trouble is he has an acute sense of smell.
He said to me. 'I shall have to give you the jacket it smells of Ducks. Of course it is lined with duck down the cheap ones have mostly feathers. I could not even smell anything so I bought it off him less 5% . He was so disappointed as he loved the jacket.

Re:
50 years Corbin, but in the olden days one could not sell flowers,everyone had a large garden, now we sell quite a lot for two Charities. Also anything else that is cheap one of the best lines is windfall apples. Our flowers are £1 BUNCH. CHEAPEST i SAW IN THE SUPERMARKET WERE £3-80. People still like a bargain.

Archie times his trips very well, to his advantage, it seems. Your poem is entertaining, with an acerbic wit flavoring it. Hahah.

I'm so glad you were able to write your story poem without
the cliche of crocodile tears. Sometimes, though, it seems honesty is not the best policy.

I hope that Archie is having a nice one-week vacation...I like the way in which she assesses the relationship.

Never smile at a Crocodile...
We had such wind and rain last night that I thought my garden would be in ruins but it seems to have survived. Well most of it anyway and it is coming to the end. Lots of color in the leaves and heaps were blown around last night.
