Does anyone know anything about gardening?

What part of the Med do you live on?

I get upward of 30 figs a year from my (neighbour's) tree.

We get a fairly decent haul of figs most years from our tree, which is in a pot buried in the garden against a south facing fence.

Do you think it’s worth me taking it out and repotting it then?

That's a 'yes'! An old butler sink is ideal.

Box tree caterpillar is not an issue anymore.

Will it be ok with me digging it up? I have a Butler’s sink, plant it in this and then into the ground?

It will survive most things short of nuclear explosion. It'll be fine.

Maybe better to wait until winter/early spring when it's dormant?

As ChasnotRobert says, and yes, plant into sunken sink with an inch or so of sink showing.

Late to the rose chat, but Gertrude has started flowering with plenty more to come.

As in Gertrude Jekyll, the fancy David Austin Rose? We have them Tring to climb an arched trellis.

Indeed! mrs upsidedown got a bit spendy and we have a Roald Dahl and a Pilgrim too.

Now we are gardening!

Thanks! It's come along a bit since pathgate :)

How to stop foxgloves falling over?

Convert them to foxgauntlets?

Tie them to a stake?

this wet and warm is resulting in a huge snail festival around my way.

for clarity, that's a festival of many snails, rather than of huge snails.

Yes, I'm rounding them up every morning here. Mostly slugs though. Huge numbers.
