ChrisB Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I have been hedging, friends know I am always hedging, I have lots of hedge, I have enough hedge for six households not just me. I filled my two brown bins and went to get a spade to compact it in the bin. I then remembered Judith. We would get the kitchen steps, I would steady her and hold the bin and she would get in in her wellies and jump up and down to that beautiful Milligan refrain. " When your feeling low down and can't find r-o-m-m-a-n-c-e, jump into a dusbin and dance" I am on my phone so can't do a link but get Spike Milligan's dustbin dance on YouTube you will love it. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grendel Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 all I remember was that when listening to the goon shows, we had to be dead quiet, as my dad would have the portable tape recorder in front of the radio with a microphone, we werent even allowed to move across the room in case a floorboard creaked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is exactly as my hedges were when we move in 10 years ago. You have about the same quantity as me. At least I can get a tractor to flail the outsides though.
