GARDENS: We like to visit NGS gardens when we can. Last weekend we went to Mayfield and viewed eight very different gardens, some of which were enormous. All were immaculate and beautifully laid out. When we asked if they had gardeners they said no, so we left in awe! In ours most of the work is done by my wife. I cut the lawn but as you get older the task be comes more arduous. I can remember my Dad used to grow vegetables up one side of the garden in Middle Way when he was in his sixties, not in raised beds, but digging very chalky soil, then putting in manure and reaping not a very good return for his labours. I tried it for a few years, which was enough for me. It then went to grass as much of it is chalk anyway.
