Jacky... could you have a word with the people who cut your tree down, I have two, that are driving me up the wall, this time of year, the leaves start to fall, ( maybe that whey the Americans call it the fall), and the leaves are racing each other around my garden in to the kitchen, and hall, I get a little voice from the house, "don't come in,I've just cleaned the kitchen" I open the door, and then theres a race to see who can get in first me or the leaves, the leaves normally win, so then I'm in the dog house till I've cleaned up, now the front of the house is another matter, we have a tree, again with falling leaves, that cover everything, including the path, even the fish pond is full, I have to clean it every day, or the fish will leave, but I phoned the council who said they will look into it, two months later I get a phone call, from the tree doc, who sounded as if he had, had too many bevies,( drinks), he will be around in December, dont make it too late in the month, I'm expecting father Christmas to visit and he ties his raindeer to the tree, "who's father Christmas"was the reply, never mind, try and get here as soon as you can please....
