  • Comment from author about the poem: Last of the three epigrams plus a picture of the smallest border in the garden. It's a small enclosed garden in the middle of the village and being enclosed it's also very private. Another photo tomorrow

    Swoon! Well, lift and separate, but not tight! A fine write and pic Michael. lol.

    • Michael Edwards

      Hopefully Orchi -

      I just wonder - do they they still make Lift-Your-Heart Bras ? Do you remember the adverts?

      • orchidee

        Oh yes, but I never got to the end of the adverts, as I swooned! lol.

      • Goldfinch60

        If I wore them I would be singing castrato! Good fun write.

        You need a small table next to that chair so that you can have a glass of something cooling standing on it while you sit and survey your estate.

        • Michael Edwards

          It would be gin and tonic made properly - It surprises me how many people haven't a clue.

          Large glass, correct measures, plenty of ice, lemon (Plus my wife and I add other fruit: orange, grapefruit, blackberries etc which we keep in ample supply ready cut up in the freezer) We also keep several different types of gin.

          Oh the table - well yes but we have one elsewhere.

          • Goldfinch60

            I enjoy a good gin and tonic but only have one type as I can't get any more into the cupboard without removing one of my many fine malt whiskys.

            • Michael Edwards

              One gin we haven't tried yet is rhubarb and ginger - might get a bottle today but only if it's on offer.

              I can only imagine! Such pictures spring to mind...... on well....... I love seeing your garden pictures. Keep them coming! No restrictions there!

              • Michael Edwards

                Thanks Lorna. The reply that came to mind made me blush a tad so I'll constrain myself.

                • Lorna

                  Sorry........ now more images........ ropes?

                • Christina8

                  LOL thanks for the giggle first thing in the morning. Lovely garden image!

                  • Michael Edwards

                    Thanks Christina - it's enough to make your eyes water.

                  • Laura🌻

                    Michael,
                    Thank you for the picture! Very colorful! I like the variety of flowers! Do the other borders have flowers also?
                    The epigram is hilarious! From reading all the comments, I see you got a lot of mileage out of that number three! I could make a joke, but I’ll restrain myself! I’ve enjoyed my first read of the day very much!
                    I’ll have my gin and tonic (one of my favorites) later on in the day! You said it needs to be made properly! What’s your recipe? Another favorite of mine is a very dry Martini!
                    Thanks again, Michael! You’re awesome!

                    ~Laura~

                    • Michael Edwards

                      Actually the right recipe is getting the right amount of tonic to the right amount of tonic - and that's quite subjective. I must say that a quality tonic water makes the world of difference - over here Fever tree Tonic is the at the upper end of the spectrum and is readily available. Bought a bottle of Sloe Gin earlier today - one of my favourites. Another photo tomorrow - I'll take one mow outside the studio.

                      • Laura🌻

                        Thank you my friend!
                        Looking forward to tomorrow’s pic!😊

                        “The right amount of tonic to the right amount of tonic”??🤔

                        • Michael Edwards

                          Not easy hen you're pi**ed !! 🙂 🙂

                          Just been to mow outside the studio - think I'll have another !

                          • Laura🌻

                            Cin-Cin 🍸😄

                          • Fay Slimm.

                            Ha ha ha - - what hidden depths you quill in today's epigram Michael -- - love this cheeky but clever touch of fun. Great picture of a colourful corner out in your garden too.

                            • Michael Edwards

                              Very hidden indeed - very few people ever see my underwear, thanks so much Fay.
