Oh joy of joy one of my favourite gardeners has just bestowed on me, one of his rocket plants! I have been salivating over his plot and noticed today he’d extradited the plant to the compost pile. He went home and dug one from his home garden and presented it to me with an orange trowel.
I love gardening in a community because you have constant advice and reflection plus “caring & sharing” as we’d say to three year olds.. All these people who bare witness to your vegetable fecundity! Jingle Jangle, yeah, yeah, yeah. Umph!

“The art pundit, Boris Jack, would be in evidence no doubt, along with those rival art reviewers for the two major dailies, Polly Glot and Polly Nana, who resented each other not because of any difference in their view of art but because readers generally lumped them together as “The Parrots.”
