Our thread title queen @Milking Keynes reigns supreme with her latest suggestion which received 85 votes!!!! 
Welcome to The Garden Thread where we amused ourselves while Lidl was "taking some time off". Some of us amused ourselves more than others! #cobwebs #chafing #lodgertodger #agedifference
Wait, Lidl's back already....
* Josie named a bedroom in her mansion "The Garden Bedroom" so Lidl named her dressing room in The Bunga "The Garden Dressing Room"!
* Lidl attended a half day talk by the head gardener at Le Manoir au Quat'Saisons. She prepped for the talk by pondering the question "will I be the only one wearing tinted lip balm?" She reassured herself that others might be like her and enjoy gardening AND lip balm.
* Lidl is now thinking of doing a Royal Horticultural Society course...hmmm, the last time you applied yourself to something was #globy. How did that work out?
* Our weak wristed dabbler is dreaming of becoming head gardener at a National Trust property.... M'kay...the salary is approx £30k pa....still dreaming Lidl?...
* ...meanwhile all the dead plants in her house have been replaced by fresh ones by Hello Petal!
* Lidl's practising her Latin plant names...Laurus 'knob' ilis... Learn English first!
* She's bought an 'antique' table after falling for the seller's story that it was once used by Lady Di. He couldn't find the photographic evidence. An adoring sub found a pic but Lidl's 'cut and shut' table is not the one in the photo!
* Our keen bot buyer did a "what I bought from Zara" vlog to get views, but it was just two baskets #desperate.
* The MGs continue to borrow country houses for their Instagram grid. Don't want to show The Bunga eh?
* They posed in shades of beige on the staircase of Keythorpe Hall then Lidl stomped around Ashby Manor in a Holland Cooper coat, which was two sizes too small.
* As predicted we got the annual complaint that Ali's birthday is four days before hers. This year, though, it is "more seperate (sic)"...er....
* Lidl had "two days notice" to prep for a friends and family birthday party for Ali. That's the annoying thing about birthdays...they just pop up with little warning!
* There was a tablescrape, (nearly a whole) "woodland" nettle cake, pizza, open "Garden" secateurs and plenty of plastic sauce bottles. Sounds like a recipe for disaster!
* She hung by her ankles out of the Garden Dressing Room velux window to get some photos of the party, rather than mingle with his friends in her ballgown.
* She served risotto and bread in the Greedhouse for Ali's birthday. "Weekend memories" were of the toilet bowl!
* Congrats to Namima for reporting to the ASA Lidl's petty advertising deceptions to avoid the Instagram algorithm.
* We STILL want to know about the secret personal financial project....and whatever happened to Karen Millen....?
In other news
* Vic went on a Dior Beauty train trip in Scotland.
* Ali is having a career moment. He's styling the collar of a polo shirt three ways - in, out and up! All are acceptable! No tittering at the back!
* His dressing room is not finished because they work so much!
* We're sending positive thoughts to our @Margo Polo and family.
