25th April 2024 - Garden Work

Thought for the day :"Got a couple of sock puppets for sale. Anyone want to take them off my hands."

Rain 86 : Dry 29 

Bag 27

Susie weeds the bottom rose beds, and adds some horse manure fertiliser and bark 

May need some more bark to finish the job.

Meanwhile I am down in the paddock again with the Chain Saw and cutters to reduce the next trolley full of wood for drying ..

 

Meanwhile, at the other end of the garden, more white stones are put around the mermaid - Toby checks that they are in the right position 

Will make it easer to strim across the section - sadly the strimmer seems to have died a death 

Not sure if it is the batteries not strong enough or the motor seizing..  will look again tomorrow 

Susie has a bad neck again - went to Doctor due to some swelling on the neck and will have bloods and a new ultra sound Monday and when we can get it. Early night with a heat pack. Not sure if it is the coughing or whether she has pulled it again doing the gardening ..

The new gate seems to have defeated 'Thena getting at the eggs in the new Coop, though she has spent a long time trying to get through the gate - under, around, through.

Still working on the ritual for installing my successor  into the Chair of St Thomas of Acon on Saturday, and the ritual for Athelstan on Tuesday. 

Cheers !
