So basically, there’s no such thing as extreme gardening but if there was it would look something like this:

Here’s what’s going on:

1. Go to garden centre (approx. August) and spend £10 on bulbs
2. Think about planting them for several months
3. Keep thinking about planting them until summer is almost here
4. Watch as the bulbs lose patience with you and just start growing without any soil or water
5. That’s EXTREME GARDENING!!!!!!

So there you go. Extreme gardening – look out for it at the next Olympic games. blah blah blah whatever whatever yadda.

Here’s some more pics from today:

Apparently, American folk don’t really use washing lines anymore and they scoff at us European folk who still like to use them. So this next photo is dedicated to our carbon-consuming, convenience-loving, wasteline-growing American cousins:

Here’s the flowers from my plum tree. Soon they’ll die and little green plums will start growing and then they’ll turn purple and will fall off and get thrown at my neighbours when they least expect it:

I went to the garden centre and bought a tree. Here is me and Olivia from next door posing next to the nice, new, big tree. Click the photo for a bigger version

I actually tried to bring the tree home in my nice big volvo car (my volvo photo) but it wouldn’t fit so I went home and got my big transit van instead. I left the tree in the carpark and when I returned it had gone. I was depressed, I thought someone had stolen my £27.50 brand new tree. And then I saw it in the corner of a storage area and heard a man say “it was just there in the car park”. So I walked over and claimed it and blah blah and everyone lived happily ever after.

The question I need help with is should I have 1 tree or 2. Here is an edited version of the above photo showing 2 trees instead of 1. What do you think? 1 or 2?

WOOHOO!
