  • One very special, real live guru is in our midst.

    She'll probably kill me.

    But.

    I've been trying to get one of my colleagues - who has been at the forefront of organic gardening for quite a while, to sign up and now she is here.

    She has been given the moniker 'Organic Guru' and will probably not want to cause a fuss. She might not even come on here that often, but when she does - you can be sure that the advice that she gives is the stuff of much research and experience.

    I'm not going to out her; or give her name - but I just wanted to let you know why that title has been given to someone so new on here.

    Please be welcoming if you see her around.

                    Well, if she has read all this and is still here, "Croeso i'r Vine,".

                    I prefer the idea of an expert who pops in to any thread when they have something relevant to say. I think the moniker is a good way of flagging up their role on the vine which is slightly different to the rest of us.

                    However, I will say again that it's the advice/experience sharing with real gardeners that I have found most valuable and interesting even if it has no direct relevance to me - I'm facinated by how allotments work. I even got quite excited when I drove through Narberth the other day and saw the allotment soc' had put out a banner to advertise a vacancy! (It's 20 miles away and I don't need an allotment but I was thinking "why do they need to advertise? How sad is that? Surely there should be a queue?")

                    I can see this member is a "real gardener" before anyone take what I'm saying the wrong way.

                    PS. I just don't have enough time to say hello to everyone as they join so please take this as a delighted to see you here!

                            Ah, I didn't look back far enough, assumed that she's only joined yesterday or the day before so only skimmed a few pages of the most recent people on line, don't think she's been on for about a week but hopefully will enjoy being involved and not be scared off by all the curiosity

                            Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

                            Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

                              Now THAT's the kind of clue I need.

                              But are we now supposed to pretend we don't know?
