Spring, it seems has well and truly sprung ……..
….. and with it, Darrell’s garden envy ……
…… The Towers having only a plain lawn at the back and assorted evergreens at the front, so pretty much devoid of the any of the colour he longs for, other than the yellow and white of the daisies and dandelions that poke up through the lawn between it’s monthly mowings!
I’ve told him, no promises, but perhaps we could plant just one fast growing, colourful, climby, spready, thingy alongside the metal network rail railings, which wouldn’t get in the way of any estate maintenance.
To be honest all they do is a couple of sweeps of the lawn on their big mower, a fleeting strim along the edges and a quick leaf blow which always seems pretty pointless. However, if our first fledgling plant takes root and spreads then maybe we could add a couple more a little later?
Obviously, this would have to be a palpable and tangibly exciting, covert operation, undertaken when we are positive our miserable neighbour is out, but the pleasure in said thwarting would be ohhhhhhhh sooooooooooo delicious! What are we like? I think, maybe, we are monkeys on a mission ……..

Will there be some covert midnight digging? Good luck!
I hope misery guts 'im upstairs doesn't see you. He would probably inform the authorities. (Or did he move out?)
Let's hope it's Mission Possible! JantheFan x
