JDog Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 This picture was taken in my garden yesterday. As far as I can remember it is the first Rose I have ever had which has been in full bloom in January. So, having given the game away by saying that it is a rose, the game is to identify the cultivar. There are three prizes on offer, all books; 1. 'How to become an expert on air rifles' by Ultrastu. 2. 'The secrets of my success' by Pigeon Controller. 3.'Missing made easy' by JDog.

Thought we had done well having a few left in December, really mild still. Everything will get growing then get hammered by frost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobbyathome Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 i think it might be a royal jubilee if i am right i would like to swap the books for the following books if only i iwas closer by the author mr mostof pigeonwatch love ditchman by fat sarah and i wish i had any permission by me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDog Posted January 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 A fair guess Nobby but wrong. The 'Love Ditchman' book by Fat Sarah is a classic but sadly out of print. You should look on Ebay for another by the same author entitled 'So close but so far' about her unrequited love for the same man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobbyathome Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 what about the i have left my tools on the roof by ditchman is that still in print? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandgun Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 Henri Martin...... I would like all the books to be auctioned and the money raised to be donated to "Save the pigeon" a charity that helps failed pigeon botherers to find meaning in their lives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitebridges Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 Brilliant Pink Iceberg Bush Rose. I've got several issues of the Tales of Fat Sarah ( illustrated ) so if this entry is a winner then perhaps you'd donate a book to Jeremy Corbyn.

Old Boggy Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 Looks to me a bit like `La Reine Victoria`. However, I really don`t need JDog`s book on `Missing Made easy` as I do pretty well without. OB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mice! Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 @Old Boggy the rose has been named. Going through the woods today, new nettles growing and shoots on the honey suckle, its like spring is here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
