HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL PEOPLE,

gardening by moonlight wearing nothing but novelty chocolate flavoured wellies is NOT excentric

[hawthorns]

what if you talk to the dog and talk back for him

[seasprout]

Bonkers

Only eccentric if done on a Sunday in the Month Easter is.

I've done this for years. It's sometimes the only way to have a decent conversation with a like minded individual.

I've been telling the OH that for years!

I bet he's an expert on digging???
Well there you are then- there's nowt wrong with asking an expert for their advice!!
The fact that you are blessed with telepathic abilities is a bonus!

Time we enrolled some of the fair sex on our allotment site methinks.

Somehow, a bunch of wrinkly pensioner blokes dancing around in the nude wearing only chocolate wellies doesn't conjure up a very pleasant mental image eek:

Does gardening make you eccentric or do you have to be eccentric to want to garden?

Maybe both. Bit of a chicken and egg situation?

Of course we are eccentric. However that is according to the rest of the population. I think we are completely normal and the rest of them are out of step.

Um. So I'm not the only one who appeared in the "Gardener's Rest" panto.

Hello Hawthorns. Please join the nuthouse. .

I agree, it's the rest of the world that's out of step with us - eccentric, with thousands of packets of seeds, buying the most bizarre tools, diving down skips, scrounging pallets, telling our friends 'don't throw that away, got just the use for that (insert name of item as necessary (so to speak)) ........

Well, a tad eccentric perhaps but compared to the majority of the people in the Uk and Europe, perfectly sane when it comes to the food we grow and eat
