A critical review of Eric and Aileen's garden

The Rival Gardeners!!!!!!

Some people like to rub it in our faces that they have outdoor space and can have a so-called "real" garden. Eric and Aileen have sent us a photo of their new garden. Here are our thoughts:

The good:

1. The colour coordination is great - pink and yellow definitely go together.

2. The spacing is superb - we see a lot of symmetry happening here.

The bad:

3. Nothing is bad per se, however there is a lack of variety. I see no vegetables in sight...

The ugly:

4. Ugly is a pretty harsh word. The garden space itself is quite nice. What we do take issue with is the fact that the garden could have (and should have!) been much larger!!!!!! When we last saw the space there was no sod - just fertile soil... What happened guys?????

In conclusion: a good effort, however they should have taken full advantage of the space they had and planted a pear tree. A consultation with the Peterborough gardening guru is recommended.
