Marvellous and entertaining words as ever, KK.

I love the mowing pics – so satisfying to see a good job being done! I guess you are finally at one with your range of machinery for the task in hand.

Comment on Whom can one trust? by Keith Channing

Good question, Hazel.

To my mind the object of ‘Trust in’ is abstract, conceptual, indirect, generic, or remote. You can trust in God, you can trust in people’s common sense, you can trust in the medical profession and so on. ‘Trust’ on its own is, I believe, more direct – I trust my Doctor because he knows what he is doing (whilst I trust in his ability to fix me). Whilst either would be correct in the title, the meaning would be subtly different.

I shall speak to Clare about the potager.

Now you know that I am an avid reader of your entertaining blog, Keith, even though I rarely comment.

Two things this week, however – am I right in thinking that your blog title should be ‘In whom can one trust’?. I am, of course, happy to stand corrected – grammar not being high on the priority of teaching at the Girls’ Grammar School in the 80′s (ironically).

Also, when Clare kindly sent me some parsnip seeds a week or two back, I asked if it would be possible to see some pics of the potager (snow notwithstanding)?
