I was wondering when someone would twig (groan).
Only noticed it myself this morning. Nothing to do with your horticultural hero, though.
By the way, my wife doesn't think I look like Alan T. (but then she quite fancies Monty Don, I think, and I certainly don't look like him either).

Are you a moderator now then Richard?
I notice that Kerren is also green, well her name is, I have no idea about her politics.

No, not a moderator. I don't think I'd be very good at that!
It's just some technical thing which enables us to stay in touch on CHA matters. For some reason it's turned our names green.

Old anything you like, as long as it's not Alan bleedin' Tichmarsh!
Even the standard Derek & Clive greeting would be fine (but probably not on the forum, though).......

No - I have met them both - they are definitely spring greens (tho the gardener one is wilting around the edges a bit).

ruction n. A riotous disturbance; a noisy quarrel. [Possibly alteration of INSURRECTION .]
Now there's a word I haven't seen in a while.
