RE: Gardening.....
Well, Tan got her Higher National Certificate in Garden Design the other day, and received today the award of Student of the Year - Yahoo!! She is already an award winning garden designer!!
The kids are feeling the pressure now though, as I was engineering student of the year back in 1981, so that makes both parents students of the year.......what a bunch of swots we are..... She looked at me and rolled those big brown eyes and said, "Oh, I would do it all for you, `cos you`re a Rocker" |

RE: Gardening.....
Cheers RN - To say she is over the moon is an understatement - but she worked very hard for this, and is already winning lots of work.

RE: Gardening.....
Given how well-done even the most amateur gardens in the UK seem to be - that is quite an accomplishment! Congrats to Tan!

RE: Gardening.....
Cheers for all the nice comments. She is still basking in the afterglow of it all - but she did help me pot -on my chilis and peppers earlier today, and watered my onions the other day too.
Yes I think Brits do like their gardens, nice lawns, roses, herb patches and veg..... She looked at me and rolled those big brown eyes and said, "Oh, I would do it all for you, `cos you`re a Rocker" |
