How's this for tree-mendous effort? I only had to drag it a mile and a half uphill just before midnight 😵 If it survives it'll be a miracle! #movinghouse #movingtrees #thisisme

Your neighbourhood watch might need an explanation or two why you are dragging plants in the middle of the night 😅😉

@clipperty that's right 😀 it was a touch bigger than when I was given it, so bunging it in the car was not an option! A Yorkshireman doesn't leave much behind 😄

@columbiariver I just hope it survives. It wasn't a precision manoeuvre digging it up, in the dark with a torch in my mouth, sweating and dribbling everywhere 😁

You know you love your garden when... (finish the sentence) 😉😁 I'll need a separate removal van just for my plants when we move next 😅

Yorkshire people are so civilised! Last time I was out on a Friday night on the Toon I saw men in leotards and people were walking past without batting an eye. 😂😂😂

I'm really pleased with it, long time coming @susieg @lovemygarden65 😃 It waited patiently at the nursery for a year while I went to collect it. The first I chose was bought by some twonk who pulled off the reserved tag and hauled it to the till! Snooze and you lose, eh?
