My garden !!!

Okay, so I'm not exactly telling the truth.  These pictures didn't actually come from MY garden.  As some of you know, my garden just really consists of a lawn with stones round the edge and a few pot plants, but hey, that does us.  These pictures are from the gardens I've been looking after for the past few days.  So for now I think we CAN call them my garden(s).  I'll apologise now.  I know the pictures aren't very good.  I do need practice in taking better pictures and it didn't help that I just took these quickly on my mobile phone.  It was getting dark and we had watering to do !


My mums plums !  These are on a tree in her garden.  When I say tree, it's more twig looking than tree looking but it does produce plums.  I bought her it for Mothers Day in 2009 (I think) and it produced plums last year too.  We thought about eating one as we were watering the garden but we daren't, just in case she's counted them !!!


The pigs arse !  This is an ornamental 'thing' that my aunt bought for her garden.  We don't really ask WHY she bought it, but I have to say, she was very excited the day she bought it and couldn't wait to get it out of the box to show us.  I'm not sure the neighbours were too sure about it after watching HIM water the garden last night and then blasted the hose over the pig and said 'just washing the pigs arse' !!!



Oh, and the last picture is of Buster.  This has nothing really to do with the gardens but I just downloaded the other pictures from my phone and found this one on there.  I thought I would share the picture with you guys because I hope you will all agree, what a handsome lad he is !!!  I have no idea why it cut the bottom corner off the picture either !
