Great amusing letter. Where do you get it all from? come on come clean -
do you write for a living? If I could write like that I most certainly would
Keep posting - here on the list we get it all for free!
If you can manage a reply today - if you are connected I would appreciate
it. I am taking myself off the list tomorrow for two weeks as we are off to
the 'Old Country' to visit kinfolk etc. the etc being visit as many
nurseries as possible and bring back our cases stuffed with them. We have
had many funny happenings with the content of our cases. In particular
Virgin random searches its customers. I remember once them opening our cases
to find that two of them contained plants that had been taken out from their
pots and wrapped so that I could get them all in, they scratched their heads
over that one and the soil was all over the concourse. And another when a
VERY LARGE box of packed plants got stuck and blocked the x-ray maachine for
more than an hour. We were very popular especially as I was ranting -" if
you have harmed my plants I'll sue" etc.
Will miss the list while I am away.
Cheers everybody
