How adorable! I remember 'helping' Daddy with the runner beans when very small. My favorite was helping Mummy shell peas..

Tim, there's a child in the lovely photo of your roses & tomatoes! :o I'm sure one of my gardening books has them listed as an official pest!!!!! :) Is he doing a bit of "live heading" in that top one?

Only joking, of course, what a cute kid!

He looks very intrested Tim, keep him at it, if you teach him half of what you know he will be a very clever chap when he grows up.

Wendy - no upset - just an explorer - can't let him out of your sight for one moment. More dangerous with the broom than the cobweb brush!

Weedbusta - you're SO right. And living next door is a blessing.

My favorite was helping Mummy shell peas..


I was eventually relieved of pea-shelling duties as few peas actually made it as far as the pan. ;)
