you reckon

What did we tell ya?! BRILLIANT! Do give it a bit of water, but don't
over do it and say to removal folks that you haven't watered. Lie!!!
But don't feed it. We told you not too because the roots will get
damaged. Just leave it in its pot and don't expose it in full sun -
place it where it used to be before, it was sheltered by your bike
shed. Find a similar place for it in your new house. Your wife must be
happy :o)
