Yes, yes, that's the one. Wonder where they get it from then. See the gourds and pumpkins have started, it'll be xmas before we know it.

yes, the gourds have been on a couple of weeks.

Im tempted to buy a box and fill a glass vase with them and do an arr on top cos i bought some little spiky green and orange things before and did that and someone bought at the day after.

i saw an arrangement like that done in a very large vase and exotic flowers it was eye catching

I love gourds, I am growing them in my garden but it's been such a crap summer I doubt I'll get any fruit. They have their own smell though don't they, pumpkins particularly, when you cut into them.

rosa, you must have an allotment in your garden. You grow everything

Hahaha, it's a country estate actually, don't you know, I have a team of gardeners helping me. Well, actually it's a weed infested heap, my veg plot is the only bit that gets attention. It's been a rubbish year for veg

what with the rain, potato blight and the blinkin pigeons getting at me brassicas.
