The young guy sounds like he needs a lesson in being a gentleman. <br /><br />I loved the allotment photos on your previous post too. Our weather in BC is quite like weather in the UK, or so my former family doc who hails from England tells me. We too have had difficult growing conditions. Today is the first day of real warmth and consistent sunshine we've had since last summer. We've had a few sunny days, but they were quite cold. My poor basil died twice due to cold and too much rain, and I'm trying a third planting. Things that should be nearing harvest are barely a few inches tall. Despite the discouraging progress, I still find gardening so cathartic.<br /><br />If I can find it again, I read a quote about gardening being healing for our souls the other day and thought of you. I'll send it as soon as I can dig it up again.<br /><br />If only weeding our plots could give us the hips we had in our youth....... =)Inklinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02775312085301951675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4646749189327464337.post-73032156279984528372012-07-06T01:35:25.818+01:002012-07-06T01:35:25.818+01:00Yes, yes, yes.

Service is NOT a dirty word but you would never know it in most places staffed by the young.<br /><br />I always said that thee was no job beneath me and I meant it. Any job offered a challenge on how to figure out how to do it well or better. That is where the fun and satisfaction came from. To say I do not understand fools like the musclebound youth you encountered is putting it mildly.<br />So glad you found a good one and that you let management know about him. <br /><br />Aaaarrrrrgggghh.Lohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08398370059689865989noreply@blogger.com
