Mowed both lawns this afternoon. The grass is recovering well,. still one or two small moss patches,. but gave them a dose of iron sulphate, "to...
Did a bit, took a few hours but had not a lot to show for it. We bought this expensive bit of trellis from Bent's Garden Centre about fifteen...

I dislike the way some people are prepared to eat at a BBQ in their own garden. I like a "proper" plate and cutlery on a table and a chair. It...
Yesterday, I noticed our next door neighbour (not the adjoining semi) had the builders in to repair their leaking flat roof over their lounge...
Just tied up several clematis. I like to spread them out along the lateral wires, they'd rather bunch and grow straight up. These along the side...
No problems with my "Spring jab," yesterday, played golf this morning.
Usually I do the week's shopping on a Tuesday morning, but shortly we're off to the doctors' surgery for the "next round" of Covid jabs.
Decided to jetwash the patio, to remove the few white pigeon poo stains. So I got out my "trusty" Karcher K4 and turned it on. Nothing! I've had...

Not a lot today as it was raining on and off. Sorted out one of my trail cameras. This is the one that cover's activity on the patio, particularly...
In the circumstances I'd avoid a "landscape paving specialist," most are no more able than a "jobbing builder" but at higher prices. It depends on...
Thanks for that, I only use cages round those roses that need training. Those with them "tighten up" so for the following year I can remove them...
Can't see as much as I'd like, but I would do a bit more. I'd think "long term" if you are intending to stay in the property for a while. If not...
Not a lot today as it is sunny but very cold. Just tied up a few more clematis, which are showing rapid growth. Now that the fence is finished,...
I'm only "inspired" to switch channels whenever a "food preparation programme " of which there are far too many (they are comparatively cheap to...
