Has anyone done a parody of Paul Heaton yet? Watching Trnsmt highlights - he’s like Billy Bragg meets John Shuttleworth.

The humble rose campion is IMHO one of the most beautiful sights in an English country garden in summer - frosted pale stems and juicy pink flowers. Great for splitting and spreading around. #englishgarden #gardening
