It's now been three days since there's been no hedgehog activity, at all. I'm pretty sure there's one hibernating in the house next to the patio....
There's unlikely to be any more "argy-bargy" for quite a few months, not even a "kerfuffle." I'll stop putting food out and bring in the cameras...
Spent a couple of hours in the gardens. Weeded and mowed the front lawn, then did a leaf collection from the drive and the front garden with my...
I can remember when I first saw a coloured phone with a "curly cord." It was on a jazz album I bought in 1958 . [ATTACH] If you ordered a...
First job today was hand stripping most of the leaves of this acer. It's just a case of running an open hand down through the branches and the...
Nothing today, as I had other jobs to do. Tomorrow I may get into pruning the overhanging branches of next door's trees, [IMG] I do this every...
Quite possibly, I'm going to keep the cameras going for a few days, just in case there's any more appearances.
Nothing getting done today as it's raining slightly. If it's dry tomorrow, I'll get into the overhanging branches of next-door's trees with my...
A check on the cameras this morning revealed no activity at all last night and the food remained untouched. I'll continue to put some out for a...
The hedgehog made its first appearance 14 minutes later than the previous evening. In and out several times again during the night and early...
We've only one hedgehog in residence. It's in the house under the azaleas to the side of the patio. It's of regular habits, still. First...
Not much today as it looked like rain and I'm up-to-date. Did a bit more trimming of the top of the tree in the front garden. I had to walk thirty...
With the tree gone from next door's garden now the back of ours will get more sun and should benefit next year being less damp. There are trees in...
Just a few jobs today. I got into this wisteria. [IMG] It'll get another, more drastic prune between Christmas and New Year. The "ideal...
Nothing this morning as I had chores and shopping to do. But this afternoon I decided to get into the big acer in the front garden and give it...
Not a lot to do in the back garden today. The leaves on this acer are starting to shrivel and fall. [IMG] This one is still holding on....
Someone started a thread (on another board I think) with the title. "They Say." It had nothing to do with music, but it was enough to put me in...
No sign of hibernation yet. Still a lot of activity. The occupant of the house at the bottom of the garden came out for breakfast around 7.00pm,...
Too wet to do anything in the garden today, I'll just watch the acers go a progressively deeper red. [IMG] [IMG]
Swimming is excellent exercise at any age. In my early forties, I developed tennis elbow. I put that down to a change of squash racket. So I had...
