Just three points
It should be noted that offence is taken far more often than it is
given (as is clearly shown in this case). This implies that it is
taken without the authority of the unknowing giver. It is therefore
stolen. This says a great deal about the taker.
Please remember, you never have to take offence. Someone is always
prepared to give it.
Isn't it fortunate that we are all different.
And to introduce some perennial discussion. Are there any perennials
that grow and come to flower in the winter through the snow and are
gone by snow melt? If so what are they?
Bear in mind that, unlike Duncan (Hi), I am not a normal gardener. In
New Zealand we do not have long periods of snow except in the
mountainous regions. However being very near the bottom of the
world we can have problems with plants falling out of the ground and
disappearing skywards.
