Post by: redimp on September 14, 2005, 21:41:06
Thanks all  :)    Our susstificate will be hung in our group's lotty shed but we'll put a copy in our trophy cabinet which we keep in the local pub (our HQ)

Turns out not getting a big shiny trophy  :'( :'( :'( :'(   so you're the winner Kits  ;D



In 12 months Kitty will have had to give her big one back - and you will still have your big shiny sustificate to show how brill you are (Kitty will have to cast her mind back to remember how brill she used to be  ;D)

Post by: kitty on September 17, 2005, 15:58:05
it was obviously a fix.
my carrots were beeyootiful...me spuds looked perfick...me '1flower 1 veg'surpassed description.well,if you couldnt think how to describe a sunflower and a n aubergine that is....
but did i win?
DID i??
i didnt get even a certyificate..
nary a 'well done poor kitty'
i tell you-i wouldnt have won a 1st 2nd or 3rd if i'd only been one of three entrants,i'd printed the certificates ,and if i'd owned the village hall....in fact-i wouldnt have won if i'd been one of the judges!!!!!!! ;D
mind you it was worth getting up at some ungodly hour to choose which carrots i was taking just to see the mist rising in front of the woods  and scape the ice off me spade! ;D
the gardeners wot won deserved every last certificate and big shiny trophy-lovely lovely veg there.....
and theres always next year! ;D

so heavy were they 
-you've turned into yoda wardy! ;D
yeah.....never mind-i eat the entries-they sell them off at the end for club funds...spose i could have bought them back!ah well-it was fun-have you got your susstificate yet?

if your chimleys are leaking is it your flashing? :D
usually comes apart after a while it does...i know mr. wardy is not.erm... reknowned for his diy skills....in fact judging from some of your posts he's a positive danger..bless him!at least he's trying... ::)

cue-wardy-and i dont mean cucumber! ::)

prolly best to hide down the lottie-saves all that domestic friction-'swhy we always try to get a 'man in'..its what we end up doing when management ...ahem!..mends something....

Hi Wardy,

The little green character to the left is Yoda - a strange looking Star Wars character who says things like

"Much to learn you still have"

Could do with one of those light sabre things for my brambles an knotweed though.
