Do You Look / Act Like A Gardener?

[Nicos]

Am I are boring old fart?

Boring?...can be
Old?....getting that way
Fart?...well, I have been blessed with this ability!!

Do I look like a gardener?...well, I do tend to buy new clothes thinking if they will be practical in the garden when they get old!
...and yup I mostly look like a scarecrow (or builder's mate) during my waking hours!

[Mr Gardener]

hum, these days i tuck my trousers into my socks - so i can put my boots on easier then i can't be bothered to pull them out when i take my boots off!

100% gardener

[Mr Gardener]

I used to have a lot of "old" clothes, now they've transformed into "gardening" clothes. I'm forever finding bits of twine and labels in pockets of things that've gone through the wash

I know the feeling, packets of soggy, radish seeds, in pockets of jeans that have been put through the wash.

Not sure what a gardener is meant to look like but guess that when I am gardening I probably both look and act like a gardener

[Mikey]

I dont know what a Tilley hat is, so that makes one of us old...

Shame on you....

Clearly still a novice, a Tilley hat is a hat for life, check out their guarantee here.

All good gardeners hate waste, unless you can turn it into compost.

Just had a thought....bronzed, scratched forearms are quite a giveaway...not to mention the state of my hands and nails!

How attractive eh?

[Bren In Pots]

I look fine so long as I check that my knees are clean before I go out the front door.

But to a fellow gardener, they would be beauty marks Nicos.

My mother used to say when I was a little boy, you can't go out until you've washed your face and combed your hair. She never commented on my knees strangely enough.

[Nicos]

Ha!....yeh...my OH looks much the same!....good job eh?

[Nicos]

Washing yr knees Mikey?....now THAT'S a giveaway of yr age!

[alldigging]

I have a different coat when I'm not going gardening.

Bren, you just reminded me of Susie, the lovely Piskieboots. Haven't seen her on here for an absolute age.

On subject of thread though, I reckon we'd get some funny looks if we wore our dinner suits or other finery whilst on the plot. Up market people dress down to go gardening. Now where's my video of Rosemary and Thyme?
