I'm pretty sure the huge deluge we had yesterday evening restricted both hedgehogs' movements. The previous evening Stumpy only ate a few of his...
Monday Nothing much happened last night, both hedgehogs were active. The only visitor was "Cyril the Squirrel," to Stumpie's water bowl. Though,...
Sunday. When I retrieved the cards from Camera B (the summer house) this morning, I noticed all the water had gone as was the food. Hardly...
We were promised thunderstorms today, there's a bit of cloud but that's it. Too hot to do anything in the garden. Anyway, "Dorothy" wouldn't want...
I hadn't intended to do anything today as I had shopping to do in the morning and there's a lot of sport on TV this afternoon and evening. But...
There were no "close encounters of any kind" last night, nor visits from cats or foxes. The first thing stumpy did when he came out last night,...
I was going to strip some of the two foot long, dying and dead blooms from this wisteria. [IMG] I was using a step stool so I wasn't...
There was a bit of a confrontation last night that lasted about half an hour, the two hedgehogs had a bit of a "face off" outside house B. Hettie...
An elderly neighbour of mine used a mild solution of bleach on his paving slabs, once a week. They were always free from any discolouration.
I added some protection to the far house. I'm gonna call it the "B house" and the one under the azaleas next to the patio the "A house." Just...

I'd add cotoneaster, "Cotton Easter." Joking,..
Just a bit of dead-heading of the roses today. They've put on a reasonable show but I think that very cold spell in February put them back a bit....
Well.. Our garden was like Piccadilly Circus last night. Hettie emerged from the bottom house around 9.30pm last night and was in and out of it...
Pruned this viburnum in the front garden. I don't like it getting too tall or "bullying" the acers and rhodos. It would if I allowed it and it...
Breaking news (1/06/23). A report from Spike Prickle, the BBC's Hedgehog Correspondent. (why not? They have them for everything else!) A further...
It's well known in my family that I have no interest in cooking. The sheer number of (cheap to make) food programmes on TV amazes and annoys me....
I seem to go for days when nothing needs doing until days like today when I noticed that there's a lot to be done. This was our wisteria between...
Good question. Both have patches of cement render from where they've brushed against the edges of the hole in the concrete base panel of the...
Thanks for that, yes it's the head of a young fox.
