Yes, he might've been Prickles, but I didn't see him go to the lavatory. I did spot him popping into the greenhouse though - he probably thought the tomatoes needed watering :-D

H'actually Island, one of the lads is incredibly knowledgeable about trees and all things 'orticultural. I asked him, before he lopped off a long branch of my Mimosa tree, if it made good logs for the fire and he shook his head and said it was from the legume family and would be too soft and dry.

Now, if only I'd known you were making pickle to-day . . . . .
