    I'll blooming kill her

    I wanted to know how long the strawberry plants could go without watering, so I could organise someone to come in and do them whilst we are away. So I says to the missus, 'Dont water these dear, I will do em, want to see how long till they get droopy'
    So I says to her this morning, 'blooming heck these things are better than cactii, just look at them go and they havn't been watered for ten days.'

    'Oh its ok dear, I have been watering them twice a day for you, I know you are busy'

          My missus killed our strawberries with neglect weeks ago. Think we had one tiny slug nibbled strawberry.

              You can kill the wild ones by pouring Castrol GTD in the soil. It disperses after about a month and kills anything alive.

                  My wife once killed our lawn.

                  She bought a huge bag of lawn sand (God only knows why) and instead of following the directions (sprinkle so many grams per sq. metre) she thought she'd get her moneys-worth and use the whole bag.

                  When I opened the bedroom curtains the next day - the lawn was black

                    John Reid will sort this out. After a period of consultation.
