Some people grudgingly put up with gardening because they want a pretty garden and somewhere to play with the kids and the dog.  Some people truly resent gardening enough that they will hire a gardener to mow the lawn and keep the weeds down.  Some people hate gardening so much that they gravel or patio the entire area and don’t even want to be bothered keeping plant pots on it.

But the people I really hate are the ones that hate gardening so much they won’t do it but still insist on having a garden, or rather an overgrown mess of foot high grass, dandelions and dock leaves that ruins the look of the entire street for everyone else.  There are two of these occupants living in my street.  You will tend to find, however, that not only is their ‘garden’ an overgrown, neglected mess but so is the rest of their house.

To those people, I tell them - get a flat!  Do NOT torment the rest of us with your overgrown excuse for what you supposedly believe is acceptable.  That folks, is my rant for today.
