Err no Gee .. 2 guys got a puncture on their trailer and were trying to fix it outside our house with no tools so I said wheel it in and we can fix it .

Couldnt resist the pic against the pond !

My imagination was working overtime! Thought you would stand it on its blunt end, put shelves across and fill it with lovely pots and plants! It would have looked good by the pond!

Do you remember Tales of the River Bank, narrated by Johnny Morris - with the hamsters etc. in the toy boats, lol.

Aye Gee - Jane and I had exactly that conversation and were rather hoping they would give up on it ...no such luck lol

He he Dawn yes that brings back memories .. when look back think I had such a lovely childhood the days when you could ask a stranger for help..was it Roddy and Hammy ?

Thanks for that Arlene .. already lost a big chunk of the garden maybe should admit defeat and turn it all into a lake !

I'd like a little boat for when I'm removing reeds from my pond, lol. I'd probably just go round in circles though :(

Can't remember the characters' names Ray - I was lucky to have a good childhood too when I think back now :) The summers always seemed good - but were they? My dad was in the garden til dusk :)
