See my comment to Lynda above: my new pup, Angie also loves snails...

My new pup has taken to eating the odd snail, so after a shower, I dash out, pick them up with her trying to pin the snail to the ground first (!) and I place them INSIDE my garden. My friends think I am crazy ;) Yeah, I can imagine that your beautiful garden is also cool and inviting while we're experiencing such hot weather.

As he planted it in the garden, we had a shower of rain, hence the smudges from every word. My dil says they're just like the trails that snails leave...

I love your sign for the snails, & also the fact (re. a previous post) that you pick them up off the driveway so that they aren't crushed by car tyres ... just the sort of thing I would do :) Enjoy the rest of your holiday time with your family ....<BR/>xxDiary From Africahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15191543533838372003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617652323643666421.post-63061099293105192702008-12-29T16:53:00.000+02:002008-12-29T16:53:00.000+02:00Hi Jo, I love the sign for the snails!Your garden ...Hi Jo, I love the sign for the snails!Your garden looks a very peacefull haven for family and friends.<BR/>PeggyPeggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16336168195436906219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617652323643666421.post-46927086094895388392008-12-29T12:03:00.000+02:002008-12-29T12:03:00.000+02:00Your gardens are absolutely gorgeous, especially c...Your gardens are absolutely gorgeous, especially compared to the dreary cold and bareness I have outside :) (for everything there is a season)I imagine they take a lot of work to remain so beautiful.
