The bishop and the urinal



      No, it's not a headline in one of the more lurid tabloid newspapers' so don't go racing to conclusions and expect an expose about a senior member of the clergy. A friend who is a building site manager for a refurbishment company gave me the urinals to use as planters for flowers. We've got four of them fixed to a fence and strangely they suit the Norfolk Bog Door Blue that's flaking away and giving them a distressed look. Completely accidental of course.  This summer they had Mimulus growing in them before the weather brought autumn to them a little too early, anyway on to the 'Bishop'.
      The clergy man in question is the Bishop of Llandfaff, the red dahlia in the foreground, and even that is fading. There are also Bishops of York, Oxford, Dover too and they're all different colours. We love them, the bees love them too so what's not to like?
      File it under trivial but vaguely interesting.
