I'm far removed from crime (organised or otherwise) of course, but I can understand Don Corleone love of gardening. I'm even about to start my tomatoes! Very ironic isn’t it?

I rather love the whole eastern type garden. Have you thought of doing a rock garden maybe on the side or something? When I lived in Japan small pebbled rock gardens were common at the Shinto gardens. I would see the monks actually out there daily raking the garden in swirlies, the end result is very relaxing to look at and very zen. I am sure Barry could give you a better historical backround than I on Shinto or Buddist gardens. With your new eastern garden you could use a nice bench to oversee the beauty when you get tired. Funny how people call you the Bahraini Godfather of blogging and remember in The Godfather, Don Corleone tended to his garden when he gave up the mob business full time? LOL I think it is terrific that you, your wife and children all have had joy in working together. They will always have fond and funny memories of the countless hours you all have spent together. Keep up the hard work. HI Mahmood….Eid Mubarak to you and your family!Congrats on your new garden. I rather love the whole eastern type garden.
