    Don't kick me off...  I promise not to be naughty again.

    Just Katie claimed to be a Romanian Trampoline Artist (with a funny accent) when she first joined. 

    I like to bring that up fairly regularly, so thanks for providing the opportunity.[:)]

    Seems that you get dissapointed  when I say that things are going well in France.

    Sorry if that is moaning.You are a funny bunch!!!

    Jon you must have mis-read Jacquis post.

    It is your repeated description of other forum members as 'negative' etc., which is particularly grating.

  3. [quote user="TWINKLE"]Oh!  Is this a gardening thread?[8-)]

    Sorry[:$] 

    [/quote]

    You were talking about gardening for much of the time though, before moving on to extermination of Knotweed, which is commendable.[:D]

    Tegwini I'm not sure who you were asking but I'm in Charente Maritime and my Passionflower only stopped flowering about 4 weeks ago. There were plenty of fruits too.

  4. [quote user="mooky"]My passion flower has had flowers in abundance for the last two years. Looks awful now, should I prune a little bit or what.

    Also.Clematis. How do you pronounce it correctly? Is it Clem a tis   or cle mate is[/quote]

    Hi Mooky.

    I lopped mine (4 years old) back by two thirds about a week ago, and it's already started sprouting again.

    Mine's on a south facing wall though. I don't know whether I'd have been so daring otherwise but it was a terrible mess (like yours, I suspect) and something had to be done.

    The pronunciation of Clematis is your first suggested option - Clem-a-tis with no particular emphasis on any of the syllables.

    Having skipped through the thread I hope Katie and or/ Twinks haven't killed any innocent climbers overnight. [:D]

  5. [quote user="TWINKLE"]Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who remembered my birthday last year[:)][/quote]

    Who can fail to note (albeit with horror) such outrageous self-promotion.[:D]

    Twinks, remind me to forget your birthday this year.[;-)]

  6. Very clever post Mr Riff.[:D]

    [quote user="The Riff-Raff Element"]...Give the poor old Archbish a break. After all, freedom of speech and opinion is what we're all supposed to be about, isn't it?

    [/quote]

    I wouldn't dream of denying the Bish his say, but I don't think he'd be in favour of according me the same privilege. 

    What Deimos said made a whole lot of sense to me.

  7. [quote user="Rose"]...I was just getting to like Rose... it was growing on me... [Www][/quote]

    And the rest of us have only recently recovered from the 12 pages it took for you to decide on 'Rose'.[:D][:P]

    Just hang on to it. Make it your own.
