Oh, another visitor. Had a few through here, I can tell you. It’s because I’m in the television series, Taxi to Kensington. I did my part this week. I’m the gardener. That Carver bloke told me I was a natural. Silly fool, I’ve been gardening all my life, didn’t need him to tell me how to do it. It’s your five minutes of fame said Tinsley. Seems to me I’ve done more working here for sixty years than in that five minutes, but everyone seems very excited because I turned on a hose!

Still they paid me well. I’m putting away a bit for John. I know he should stand on his own two feet but what am I going to do with money at my age? He might as well have it to enjoy. He certainly doesn’t seem to be having much fun right now. Still I’m content with the odd pint in the Idiot and a biscuit and a cup of tea – are you pouring?
