I recently wrote a piece saying how much I disliked weeding. Today I was in my garden again doing yet more weeding and I noticed something had changed. Once again all my friends stopped by for a chat but today, my weeding past quite quickly and in the end, rather than having completed a job I dislike, I found I had spent a happy couple of hours in my garden chatting to friends who had weeded for me!!! Thank you to all of you who dropped by. You know who you are.
