My Mums pride and joy is her garden, she loves her garden and over all the years she has lived in this house (45 years} she has worked hard keeping her garden looking just how she likes it, well since her knee replacement op she of course cant get out there yet, and now the weather is getting nice now down south here she has been teaching me gardening :) me gardening :eek: Ive never done any gardening in my life :blink:
Anyway yesterday I was out there trimming all the bushes and trees using a long pair of garden shears with handles that extend real high so you can reach the tops, anyway I did a darn good Job :) the bushes look lovely now, but there is a lot of work yet to be done with all the plants and pulling out all the nasty weeds, I hate that Job :frown:

that can of corned beef cost the equivilent to $1 or less over here,

You know cheers in America when you go into a store and something is on sale at a reduced price, ------ well over here they never use that word Sale,
instead they call it ----- on offer, it took me ages to realise what they meant,
and I still say its on sale :)
