Good morning all,just thought i would put a smile on your faces at my expense.If you all know me over the last couple of months i have been making quite a few garden planters.So i have decided this morning when i got back from b and q to clean inbetween all the flagged area in my garden.Please bear in mind there is about 200.We all have a part in the garden where all the depris goes too and i thought that is where i am going to head too.Feeling very proud of the big pile i had gathered at this point.I went to get a dustpan to pick it all up with.Not realising the back gate was open a gust of wind came through and guess what it half recovered the flagged area.I finally got it all eventually into a bag and yet again guess what it had a hole in it and made a trail all the way to the dustbin.I think it was not my day to clear the garden lol.All have a nice day:))))))

My husband did a similar thing one day. He was using the garden hoover, didn't realise the bag wasn't closed, and kept hoovering round in circles, picking up the same bits of dead leaves. It took him about ten minutes to realise, during which time he was wondering where all the leaves kept on coming from!!! lol
