Only a Rose......remember the song don't you?

If you need/want to be in good books with the wife/girlfriend an excellent one is......this reminds me of you sweetheart.

What sweetheart ?
Lovely photo Pete

Yes a beautiful image Pete. Is this taken in your garden?

**Merlin** · 10-06-2008, 08:53 PM

Yes it is Babs, but I must say our 'garden' is probably as far removed as a garden from yours as is possible. I would suggest ours would at best be called a walled garden. We do have some rather 'pretty' things in it, though I must confess nothing to do with me as I just love to admire gardens but no desire to have any other part in its planting or upkeep.

I'm a little worried about Beryls......what sweetheart?

Pete.

***Chocky*** · 10-06-2008, 09:08 PM

aww. Don't worry Pete. I'm not

**Merlin** · 10-06-2008, 09:45 PM

OK Beryl that will do me.

Pete.

Great photo. The surface on that rose looks as smooth as a baby's bottom...
