Mince is an adult? I thought he was Peter's pre-teen son who just liked to play around on his father's message board. Sorry, my mistake.

I think Calypso deserves to know the truth.

Peter found Mince under a gooseberry bush about six years ago and has been nurturing him, somewhat like a hothouse plant. Peter was hoping to 'bring him on' slowly and steadily into adult-hood but was over generous with the fertiliser and every now and again, some s**t escapes, hence the post at 12.07.17!

Poor Peter. I suspect each time he spies a gooseberry bush these days he shudders in horror.

I think he's probably looking for a big enough bush to be able to put Mince back!

Maybe he should just farm him out to another hothouse plant specialist.

Too late - they won't touch him. Advanced stages of chronic mildew, y'see.
I apologise, in advance.

Attack of the Aphids. He's been watching too much Doctor Who.
Nostalgia is not what it used to be. 😟

I think you do not appreciate the time and effort it took too get him this far.
I would not like to use to much chemicals when feeding the results could be a bout of correction coming from Mince.
He could get picky about grammar or other problems.

 ???  I don't understand.  Doctor Who? What is that? Is it one of your quirky gardening programs?

Utterly fascinating stuff.

I did watch Ground Force to get help with the planting. Tommy Walsh was a brilliant tutor giving me plenty of advise as to how to check his levels and making sure I gave him a good foundation.
Charley Dimmocks points were well received. No help with Mince.
