their lives, the food they cook, where they live, the

get looking forward to getting out and picking roses in
the garden, I said, you're crazy, you know, because it
just wasn't normally, you know, the last thing I wanted
to do was be in the garden. I was sort
of recovering and getting ready for rock and roll shows.
But it actually really brings me a lot of pleasure
and it's incredible the garden.
Speaker 3 (01:40):

and it's sort of like a little treasure hunt. You'll
suddenly see, oh, oh my good, that's something beautiful just
starting to bloom, or the plums are started on the tree.
