Interesting concept. Since it's such a narrow chimney, do you remove it at some point when the rhubarb is up a bit more?<br /><br />Sorry to hear about Tommy though. Poor guy, but he's in good hands.Sagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14248505284633390568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-924402334800183199.post-39151758608679448622013-04-12T12:23:26.564+01:002013-04-12T12:23:26.564+01:00It's great to have a bit warmer weather now fo...It's great to have a bit warmer weather now for gardening, there is so much to do. The chimney pot on the rhubarb is a wonderful idea, it also looks nice in the border. I hope Tommy can be out in the garden to enjoy the sun on his body, I see Tess behaves the same as Snarf in my garden, when gardening he is always behind me with his ball.Janneke https://www.blogger.com/profile/11056916431881916066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-924402334800183199.post-420281046508365562013-04-12T02:01:58.325+01:002013-04-12T02:01:58.325+01:00I am so sorry to red about Tommy!I am so sorry to red about Tommy!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12020604933621899108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-924402334800183199.post-56545431263433106942013-04-12T01:54:29.287+01:002013-04-12T01:54:29.287+01:00so sorry about Tommy's health issues...but tha...so sorry about Tommy's health issues...but that he can, on a good day, still be out and about is a good thing.

Such a good companion.<br /><br />Misty went deaf too, and it really helped her be less stressed during thunderstorms and such.<br /><br />I've never seen a chimney pot. I'm sure they're not very common here in the states, but they sure do make lovely planters.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07715453703592474992noreply@blogger.com
