We can only vote for ONE task Dan?

Tricky.......

Well obviously the top one for me is planting but then, to get that right you have to do the weeding and the soil prep and the shuffling of other things to make room for new stuff and the piling up of rejects on the compost heap - they are all so satisfying but on different levels............   Sometimes just buying or growing the new plants is excitement enough.

Sad.   But fun!

But I hate everything to do with gardening!
Gardening is the great leveller.

Sorry peeps, I see this is a bit difficult  :(

Favourite job is opening a bottle of chilled white  wine, sitting back and looking over my (growing) kingdom after spending a warm day weeding, digging, sowing, harvesting.
they say it wouldn't grow.....ha

I voted other, cos I likes everything to do with the garden, from weeding, to growing, to cutting, to cropping, to barbys and drinking!  ;D

Dan 2

I think EJ and Celtic Growers have it perfectly in my opinion!

Other...love mowing the lawn.  Thats why i do it at leass twice a week.....   ;D

Dan,

Can you not do it so we have to put tasks in order, not just choose one?

OK guys, I know we'll all have weeding first!

Hyacinth

I've voted 'other' as well, cos 'chilling' seems too damned cold, but the bestest time is going back into the garden, showered after spending the whole day a-diggin,a-weedin & a-mowin, with a drink, inspecting what I've achieved - and planning the next onslaught. Bliss. :)

Dan 2

perfect!

How do I change it Cotswold Lass?

I love mowing the lawn too Adam- most of the time!

Curryandchips

Everything, so I voted other ... !
The impossible is just a journey away ...

Oh Dear Dan,

Don't ask me technical questions (she of no avatar, pics, anything except text!). Can we rate them between one and five?

Over to you!

I'm liking the way that, roughly translated, 'general pottering' + a drink is equalling 'other' - and we're almost in the lead - 2 more voters to go, is all  ;D ;D ;D

Dan 2

In order of one to five:
1. weeding
2. weeding
3. weeding
4. weeding
5. weeding

6. Only joking!  ;D

I'm a general potterer...I think. I set out to do a task but always get distracted. Spent most of my time last year poking about in my little sink pond looking for froglets. Oh and blowing bubbles.  Tum te tum   ::)  :D!

Hyacinth

"blowing bubbles" Heldi? You're blowing my theory out of the water  :o ;D

Have you ever seen a cartoon where it shows someone plastered? They are always shown to be blowing bubbles  ;)  Hic!

Can I change my vote to other...I dunno.Maybe I do general pottering of the other kind ?

CotswoldLass

I'm with the drinkers (and bubble blowers!) so I guess I'll have to vote 'other' ....

incorporating all my favourite things like having a barbie on a sunny evening with friends to admire all the home sown, newly planted wonderful  flowers and edibles in my garden! Cheers!
