One other homicide? (Final September I revealed that there had been a homicide within the backyard.) On Sunday I found a brand new thriller. A useless physique! Good factor I used to be already carrying gloves because it was most ugly. If I had been enjoying Cluedo it would go like this: Mrs A, within the greenhouse with the watering can.
“We’ll want an announcement”, huffed subsequent door’s Detective Pug as he sniffed for clues. I don’t suppose he wanted to smell far. “Wasn’t me Governor, trustworthy!” I pleaded. “I simply wished to water the seeds that I’d planted, after I noticed the legs! Then the tail. Then the water stopped, blocked by the physique, I assume” The reminiscence of it nonetheless makes me shudder. “Lifeless mouse within the watering can.” Detective Pug introduced. “Sure! And I’ve simply sprayed the contents throughout my seed trays.” —No laughing on the again please…time for this week’s six.
Now much less of the nonsense and all the way down to enterprise.

New this 12 months is that this head of Rhubarb; I’m including extra edible backyard objects in addition to flowers.
