Been a while since Mr P needed Goodgym. We usually help in the back garden, but today was different. I know what happened last summer : Goodgym were here!! Today I had several tasks to perform in 90 minutes. Mr P asked me to open a bag of compost and tip it into a massive container, which we were going to use afterwards. He handed me around 15 rose shoots to be planted in the front garden along the fence. Once planted, I used the rain water to refresh them. Then Mr P came out with a drill : a drill in the garden?!Yes!!It was for me to drill holes in the buckets that we were going to plant more shoots. The flower pots had holes already so all good. Once completed , I was provided with 17 shoots to be planted in these buckets - raspberry shoots which Mr P got on eBay for £10 in total - great deal. Ready, set, shoot : soil in buckets, shoots planted and some compost - fresh shoots in the block or the shoot squad? I was then tasked to water some of the plants and Mr P said the tap was in the back garden - I turned it on, went to the front and no water coming out of the hose!! What is wrong ? Went to have a look to find that the hose was in 2 parts _ had to find the joint and put it back before I could water the shoots.
