Guest guest Posted January 23, 2002 Report Share Posted January 23, 2002 Greg, can't promise anything, but I will think about it. In any case, please don't think that I am an expert gardener. Not even close. The plants grow in spite of my attention to them, not because of it. :-) Michael > -----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- > Von: Gregory Goode [goode] > Gesendet: Wednesday, January 23, 2002 19:57 > An: ; > Betreff: Re: Gardening > > > Michael, > > This is beautiful!

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2002 Report Share Posted January 23, 2002 Hi Michael, I know what you mean. I'm not an expert bike racer or anything, but I did do an interesting article on the Zen-like qualities of riding a bike. Looking forward! --Greg At 08:43 PM 1/23/02 +0100, MikeSuesserott wrote: >Greg, > >can't promise anything, but I will think about it. In any case, please don't >think that I am an expert gardener.
