The heavy lady statue
17 June 2009
'Sure' he said
'Positive' I replied
So after me being abosolutely positive 'he' dug up an old moss covered lawn and dried up veg patch and planted 500 patio slabs.
'Great' I said
That was 20 years ago. Six years ago after I'd whined about having only container plants 'he' acquiesed to my request and pulled up a few 'slabs' around the edge of the patio, laid a bit of gravel and stuck in the palm I'd bought. Every Summer since then a few more slabs have been removed and an hibiscus or palm been dug in the resulting new gravel space. Once I even brought home a nice heavy stone partly clothed lady statue from the Garden Centre - it took 4 men to carry it to the car and put it in the boot. When I told 'him' at home it took 4 men to put it in the car he said ' why didn't you bring 'em home with you as he staggered with the statue in a barrow to the designated gravel area.
