Many a slip

Digging rather vigorously today, I managed to snap the spade. The wood cracked and it was goodbye to that tool.

We shall have to look for one at a car boot sale. Perhaps I ought to go for something that is titanium reinforced steel. Or we might even go up to £4 if there's anything suitable.

I blame that pesky rose bush that I had carefully preserved, thinking Susan had asked for it to be kept, only to find out later that she didn't want it. I was digging around to get it out when the spade snapped.

Spade or no spade, the rose is gone now.
