Reg, if anybody objects, send their message to me. I have a
well-oiled, oft-used delete key! I'm now working on a delete that will
delete the senders!!!

If anybody objects, just tell them to search their keyboard
thoroughly, they'll find a "delete" key somewhere!

If you visit California sometime, you will find miles of oleander
separating the opposing freeway lanes. It never gets watered and lives
easily in a cool Mediterranean desert like San Luis Obispo, (20" rain a
year, normally, only 11" so far this time).
I have an olive tree in my yard that's 20 feet tall or so. A friend
gave it to me as a two foot high plant in a pail!
I was in London for about five weeks last spring while my wife was
teaching in our local university's "London Quarter". They have an
arrangement with London University. I enjoyed it very much and was most
impressed with the transportation system. I don't walk too well any more
and the tube and the buses got me anywhere I wanted to go and really quite
fast! I even took a train to Heathrow and the train even comes to certain
tube stations. I was really impressed.
We lived in a flat in Islington. This was what I called a
three-bench walk from London University.
Maybe she'll get another chance to do it another spring. If so I'll
come again. Maybe I'll get a chance to visit your garden.
I'll call first! ---Chas---
