There are three films in total, each depicting a garden markedly different in growth and evolution. My Employers hinted that they'd be cunningly spacing them out over the three days of the show, so check back for exciting daily updates, or something.

| We've also thrown in a postcard which Poncho suggests could be used as 'wallpaper', by which I must assume he means something technical and not actual wallpaper, unless the young upstart has his fingers in the interior design pie too. Nothing would surprise me. |

Hopefully these little snippets of Island living will give you some idea of a gardener's lot in this place, what their way of life means to them and how it feels to experience all these wonderful sights and sounds day in and day out... but thankfully not what it's like to encounter a waist-high mountain of Elephanilla droppings during a high-speed flight from a particularly unruly specimen of Sour Piñata. Filthy, bad-natured brutes that they are. That was almost as bad as when I opened the wrong crate looking for the video camera, and – no, I remember I filed that as a 'Level 4 Bad Experience' and vowed not to even speak of it until the rash has faded.
Anyway, with the reams of information, observation and heightened understanding that I've gained during my time here, and no immediate end to my assignment in sight, I hope to bring you plenty more from the frontline in the weeks ahead. Maybe I'll even detail my attempts to communicate with the Piñata creatures themselves, or post the brief interview I managed with that rather abrupt shopkeeper before she realised I had no money on my person. Such awful words to hear from a lady's mouth.
And with that, I shall leave you folks to your viewing, and return to my dynamic explorer's existence. Until the next time I shower you with my sparkling pearls of wisdom – au revoir! |
