Lost: 6 Garlics

Post: # 73071Post the.fee.fairy »

I planted 8, 2 in one tub, and 6 in another.
I pulled up the 2 in August and left them to dry (they've gone somewhere too..).
The 6 have disappeared! Tub and all! Its not like they can run anywhere in the garden without me knowing, nor can anyone get in and steal them (Finlay wouldn't allow it...).

So, if anyone sees 6 lonely looking garlics (they're probably quite fat looking garlics too!) please send them home!!

OH NO

Don't tell me there are Garlics on the loose, you should be more careful with your vicious plants...

I am off to check all my doors are locked and windows are tightly closed, I hope I get to sleep tonight, with all this panic in the air.

:lol: I am quite severely allergic to garlic :lol:

I hope they turn up somewhere fee... Maybe Finlay has taken a shine to the antibiotic (al??) propeties of Garlic??? Doesn't explain the pot though :?

I wonder if they're looking for the Garlic commune I've got set up in m'garage. I've now got over 40 of the buggers platted up aromatising the place. :dave:

Right, i#ll be round to your garage at the weekend to bring them back then! They'll be grounded for a month or so - i think i'll torture them with bad compost for a while and see if they look sorry for themselves...
