I never have any trouble from rogue elephants smashing up the garden
and stealing the bananas. Maybe I'm just lucky, or perhaps it's because
banana trees don't grow here.

We opened our garden on Sunday to raise funds for a local cancer
charity; we made over £400. My nails are grubby stubs after a week-long
weedathon getting ready for it.
