Next door's gardener has propositioned me.

[FR1]

I say hello when I see him and that's it.

Today he was working down the road at another house and flagged me down. Handed me a letter (unaddressed) which he said not to open then (was in car en route to work) and it said he thinks about me all the time & would I like to go for coffee or maybe a walk in the woods!

I'm happily married. I have to tell DH don't I!

I've been smiling at this thread and shared it with DH who added his own double entrendres.

Reality here though is that the garden is unruly and needs the attention of some hardworking and strong bodies. I don't even care if there's a whiff of too much testosterone about them.

Send Supplies Please.

I think a walk in the woods was clearly code for 'fancy an al fresco shag' but no harm done. Your dh will have to look to his laurels (arf) if he wants to keep your attention and not get pruned (arf, arf)

[Ivehearditallnow]

The only gardeners on my street are doing community service!

[Blossomflowers]

This thread made me spit my tea out. soooo funny.

[NymodigFruOla]

That sounds really fun! I'm mega impressed

[HeartsTrumpDiamonds]

Two gardeners.

Nothing fancy or particularly interesting I'm afraid.

One at work - actually more than one, they are a whole team of very alternative-lifestyle 20-somethings with dreds, those big hoops in their earlobes, hemp clothing and lots of piercings We are a primary school, we have flower beds, vegetable patches and fruit trees, mature trees, hedges, saplings, nature areas, composting, tubs of flowers, etc etc. The other day we had some sprouting broccoli from the garden, twas delish. The main gardener runs the after-school gardening club. Actually he (gardener) is not too bad but sadly pongs to high heaven because due to alternative lifestyle and values does not believe in deodorant

Gardener at home - only because DH and I would fight constantly about state of garden otherwise. Gardener keeps everything trimmed and cut back and mulched (all the heavy work) and I get to swan about in floaty dresses deadheading a rose bush here, picking lilacs there, planning where to scatter the tulip bulbs next season etc. Gardener is 50s, nice enough man but scared of his own shadow. We inherited him with the house when we bought it back in 2005. I think he's been doing the garden for about 20 years.

I could make up a post that is more exciting than the reality?

[NymodigFruOla]

Yeah, Hearts, how come you've got two gardeners?

[Emilycee]

This thread reminds me of Desperate Housewives and Gaby's hot gardener!

Loving the smut and pictures - and laughing my head off at shed rocking side to side! (grin)

[Ivehearditallnow]

I love everything about this thread!

[FR1]

[Bahhhhhumbug]

Enough now , stop it ! I have to go shopping on my own and a silly smirk will keep breaking out like I'm the local nutter or something.

[Bahhhhhumbug]

Also, even worse FRI , my DH is part Jewish so I have my very own Jews mallow to play with

[Bahhhhhumbug]

I will be keeping a low profile on Fri morning when he will be doing next door's garden

For some reason I immediately visualised the tool shed violently rocking from side to side.

[Bahhhhhumbug]

FRI that's lovely and why not ? life is short and you gotta grab it by the horns.
My now DH was accosted approached by me first in the street (he lived opposite) and I had an excuse cause to ask him something about parking. We hit it off straight away chatting and a few days later he left a note under my windscreen with his phone number and rest is history.
I told my DH about this thread and his first reaction was 'Ah, I feel sorry for him , poor bugger , he probably just likes her and doesn't know she's married'
As the saying goes 'Faint heart ne'er won fair lady' (or whatever)

[FR1]

Hahaha, now that's conjured up an image Baaah!!!

I will be keeping a low profile on Fri morning when he will be doing next door's garden!

[Bahhhhhumbug]

Hearts - you have more than one gardener ?


As my mother used to say 'She have a garden big enough to lose a horse in'

Mine is tiny , you couldn't lose an ant in it

No doubt this will generate more dodgy double entendre but I do have a beautiful Jews Mallow absolutely covered in flowers this year.

[FR1]

He is brave.

I actually contacted my now DH via phone (his nan gave me his number!) and that's how we ended up together. I didn't ask DH's nan if DH was attached, so a similar situation although I had a strong inkling that DH fancied me.

[Kikithecat]

Well I think he was brave. It can't be easy to pluck up the courage to approach someone especially when you don't know if they are attached or not.

[FR1]

Oh my life!! That made me lol horsetowater

[horsetowater]

Watch out he's pruning.

[horsetowater]

Sorry Melonbreath, well surely 'a walk in the woods' is a euphemism for some kind of sexual deviance worthy of a documentary on Channel 4? If he's a gardener he will hate woods anyway, far too unruly - probably bring his chainsaw, now that will get scary.

[FR1]

OMG! Not like that either!
