Now here’s a great idea for sustainable communities in Scotland. Herb gardens on streets in communities and town centres. They’re planted with – guess what! – herbs, and local people are being encouraged not only to come along and nip a sprig of parsley but to adopt and look after their box gardens. And when they’ve done that they can play a few bars of Catch a Falling Star on the piano, or indeed I Never Promised You a Herb Garden (but here’s one anyway).
