from comments on the list that american programmes 'dumb down' as well, when
a lot of us want thought provoking stuff, not the same advice every year on
how to lay turf! Having said that I like Alan Titchmarsh, however i hear he
is 'retiring' shortly for fresher pastures, and then we'll get some
fresh-faced media youth, trotting out the same text-book advice.
Anyway, got that off my chest, >>
Colin,
You are full of nice words always a pleasure to hear. Thank you for those
kind words and the news on Ground Force. We are going to miss Alan
Titchmarsh. Will it be a new leader with Charlie and Tommy or is the
program gone? That program is unusually popular here. Especially in my
house.
I usually pick up the BBC magazine if I am in a large bookstore here. It is
a good value. Hope your LOTV behaves well, it probably will as I have quite
surprised that there are so many cultivars. They, no doubt, would not be
selling if they ran around like their ancestors. Since I have spent so much
negative time on the ordinary one, I will be contented to leave the whole
tribe alone.
Keep up posted on the UK scene, Colin. It is nice to hear from all UK
writers, we seem to do all the gabbing.
