I can well image a Mums anger at her precious flowers being trampled underfoot. A nice use of the prompts taking that walk back in time and looking through 'different' eyes as it were. Well done TrishaHomework : Never Too Late

Re: Homework : Never Too Late
Good one Trish!
It's amazing how people remember the destruction of flowers - my husband's aunt who is now 89 years old, still remembers the time my husband (aged about 3 at the time) crawled under the tank stand and pulled out her precious African violets!! She still talks about it!
Cheers, Shelley

Re: Homework : Never Too Late
Yes, this is great Trish, and good use of the prompts. At the age of thirteen I went to 'help' Dad in the garden and pulled out his prize tulips by mistake - this I have never lived down!

Re: Homework : Never Too Late
Thanks Maureen, Shelley & Catherine...I know I would be devastated if my garden was trampled by party-goers. Maybe that's why I have been hesitant to host one at home. Thankfully there are venues for that!
