BTW uneven fertiliser spread makes them fork like that. <br />I was, apparently totally incurious about that particular matter, and at 14 or so, they had to ask me if I wanted to know.

She explained, but I didn't really understand and quickly forgot it, turning my mind on more interesting things such as my latest Lego construction. A couple of years or so later, I asked again, the same explanation was given and this time, I understood it much better.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132582821010486689.post-41419792973359984632018-08-30T19:42:33.918+01:002018-08-30T19:42:33.918+01:00I can see the ground was ill prepared.
