28th February 2021 - Around the Garden

Thought for the day :"I recently bought 51% of a vampire hunting company... I'm now the main stake holder."


Another sunny day. Walk up to the Lynx Field and a chat with Johnny at Felin Ganol.
'Thena tends to get a little frustrated when I talk for too long!!

But sunny and a chance to get out and try to ignore the neuralgia which is quite difficult at the moment.

Back to the garden - managed to get the leaf mulcher working and then managed to break it by pushing too hard with the broom handle trying to unblock the chopper.  Managed to take it apart and clear it out and put it back together - all going well except it won't fire up - maybe because I had it on its side so it may take some time to get the fuels lines where they should be again - also ran out of energy trying to pull the starter cord... She is very heavy...

Tomorrow is another day... But it was good to leave the back door open for a while today and let the kitchen fire burn out for a while.. Need to think about new wood tomorrow !! Running out again.

Meanwhile Susie cleared the chickens - who are still escaping - need to buy some chicken wire I think... 
Sadly - lost one of the three baby ducks - was not strong enough we think - upside down under the electric chicken - the other two seem to be strong enough...

I started on the pathway into the springs and the lower quarter. Seems to work okay though we may need a few hundred to do the path properly - so may be a while before it finishes...  Work in Progress...

A few Photos from today ...

Along the Lane - looking back towards Ffynnon Wen

Junction at Felin Ganol looking up to Merry Meads 

'Slugger's Parking Space - (for Pip)  

the Lower Quarter - daffodils not out yet 
No Bluedrops Yet

Daffodils - Bluedrops to come 



Flat area by the river which seems to be fairly dry
 though may have breached the riverbank in the flood
Possible spot for a Shepherd's Hut 

View from Potential Shepherd's Hut...

The Drinking Water Spring
Clearly can see the little bridge now the
undergrowth is disappearing

And so - another week goes by and it is Sunday again ..

Cheers !
