Didn't like the second template, too many, "freehand elements." So I did a third and cut them all out, this afternoon. There's still a bit of...
My wife likes orchids, particularly white ones. I buy them for her from time to time, paying between ten and fifteen pounds for them. When they've...
Too wet to do any gardening, so I thought I'd make a start on the rondels I want to go in the pergola balustrade. Which will be similar to the...

I think you're right, we didn't see ours last night either as it was wet, only Marcel the field mouse was caught by the camera.
I hope it wasn't too painful. As I wear an old golf cap in the garden, I can't see anything above the peak and I can bump my head occasionally on...
Ours came last night, first wet food it ate in nearly two weeks, seems happy to stay in its house. So I'm not concerned.
It should have been a golf day today, the forecast said the rain would clear up late morning. But as it was chucking it down at 7.15am. I didn't...
Just a bit of mowing, weeding and vaccing. Though I did swop over the central feature of the garden. The sambucus has been "relegated" to the...
Digressing. As a kid I was taught this rhyme phoenetically. I was an adult before I knew the actual words. I think they are quite clever. Mares...
Nothing today, But around 9.00pm last night 'arry set off the patio PIR. Must have decided to come out to have "a check on his estate." So we saw...

In English, the Australian, "Twenny fluey dancers," is " a pint."
The mouse arrived at almost to the minute of the night before. Check out the times on the videos. I was going to call him "Mickey" my wife said...
I've still got the trail camera focussed on 'arry's house. Just in case he breaks his hibernation and I'll need to put more wet food out. I...
Did quite a bit today. I pruned the three quinces along the side fence to stop them growing too tall and too close to the azaleas and rhodos,...
I've always liked the group, "The Fifth Dimension," They made quite a bit of an impression on the American charts in the sixties, "Up Up and Away"...
Nothing needed doing in the garden today, "so it didn't get done." The acer palmatum Taylor I'd ordered arrived yesterday and I've potted it out....
Thanks for that, it's actually exactly what I did. My reasoning is that he knows where it is and if he's hungry enough he'll eat it. I made sure...
We think 'arry has gone into early hibernation. He'd been eating lerss each night. He's put plenty of weight on and on his last few visits to his...
