It was a gift from the neighbouring farmers. <br /><br />I'd been up to the farm the day before to buy their free-range eggs and was going to buy one of the cabbages they had for sale in a box near to the eggs. They would have been excess to animal feeding requirements. The lady farmer refused to sell me a cabbage, saying she would drop one over the fence. I have no illusions about her prowess, but I'm very sure it does not go as far as 'putting the shot' over a a burn and a six foot high chain link fence. It is likely instructions were given to one of the younger farm workers who would have a greater hurling capacity.<br /><br />As for hailstones flattening what's in the garden; again it was my edibles that suffered the most, and that's in addition to the three days battering last week the plants already received.ZACLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07289333819869440699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17674921.post-64152287215592374092010-09-15T17:50:00.518+01:002010-09-15T17:50:00.518+01:00Oh dear, I don't like hail as it often flatten...Oh dear, I don't like hail as it often flattens everything in the garden! It has been much more settled here, although it rained much of yesterday. <br />I wonder why the cabbage was disposed of as it was!

Dog walks are down to a fine art of meeting like-minded people, therefore, you have to keep up a show. Once out of sight, a disposal operation over some poor unsuspecting person's garden wall, may be 'safe' to undertake.<br /><br />It is a horrid thing to do.ZACLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07289333819869440699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17674921.post-27140031017945567202010-09-14T20:56:07.015+01:002010-09-14T20:56:07.015+01:00you're obviously luckier than i, the last thin...you're obviously luckier than i, the last thing that came over my garden wall was a carrier bag full of dog poo...why someone had taken the trouble to collect it all and why throw it over my wall, i don't know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
