Some phone calls are great

Damn, my mates just got off the telephone after giving me the best news all year!!

It would appear that all of my bimbling moments have come to fruition, 6 months of dedicated bimbling, striving every moment to achieve the perfect ambulatory motion required, 6 months of struggling valiantly into my shorts and bimbling round the field and guess what ......

WE WON THE DAHLIA WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS!!!!!!

How cool is that? DAMN I FEEL GOOD :]:]:]:] Of course this means that you're gonna have to put up with me being an insuferable git whilst I wax lyrically about my finest bimbling moments which contributed to this crowning achievment!!

For those of you who want to save this moment for posterity it's meant to be in tomorrows Sun newspaper (lol, you just know I'm gonna frame that one!). As soon as I get the full details and the pictures off the camera I'll write a tad more about it.

Until then I'll take my world championship winning ass to the pub :]:]:]:]

Lol, cheers Steve, I've already drunk one pub dry, fancy helping me do another?

Yeah, Barrys on top of the world as well, no wonder really, we've been working for this since november last year!

Ok, that's another pub dry and I'm still buzzzzzzzing (and, based on the last call from Barry, so is he)

I've passed on all your messages and y'all get a "thank you, damn right we deserve it you peasants" ...... of course, I could just be making that up

Did I ever tell you how, on the first Wednesday in May, due to the fact that I sneezed on the right dahlia, as I was bimbling past, made it grow into a world championship winning plant? ....... no? ...... damn, I must write a whole post about it ........ and the other 3,000,000 contributing moments

I always knew you were a "blooming" something ... I just never would have suspected World Championship Dahlias.

Glad to see that all your sneezing, digging & bimbling paid off. (The magnitude of your contribution appears to increase with either time, pints or both). Ha ha.

So ... is there a photo of the winner?

Cheers,

Lol Cheryl, you've only got to put up with it for another 3 years and 360 days :>>

Ahhhh, Scott, I wondered if you'd drop by, I wanted to ask you a favour

Any chance we could borrow your greenhouse for a few months in 2009? We're considering defending our title, and the next one's held in Canada

I'll be making a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge post soon, with loads of pictures, including the winning vase :>>

Congratulations Yabs!....that is QUITE an honor, you must have babied and pampered those little guys to death to get WORLD CHAMPIONS!
I tried to grow those this year in Florida and mine just sucked!
