31st May 2024 - Clearing the garden and Visit from Cat

Thought for the day :"Those people who think that they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do (Isaac Asimov)"

Visit from Cat today and some work in the Garden.

Roses looking good at the Door now 

Walking with Toby - The tree on the field with a Cat for scale - there are old pictures showing it under 4 feet high  

Toby Love

Susie managed to cover the strawberries 

I cut the back path way and cleared the laurel leaves - as well as cutting down the road to make sure that the fairy lights are not cut by a council clearance..

Susie cleared Meerkat Mountain

And also cleared the heather and planted nasturtium, and fuchsia, abizzie lizzies at the top 

I cleared the path to the septic tank 

Path to the Greenhouse

The Goddess in the cleft in the tree

Cheers !

30th May 2024 - Opening a new Branch..

Thought for the day :"I recently took a pole and found that 100% of the people in the tent were angry when it collapsed..."

Woke this morning to find that there was a branch down on the lane - time to get teh chain saw out and chop some firewood.

Took a trip down to Nancy's new house in Narberth today and disturbed them as they got on wit the painting of the bedrooms.

A little it of gardening for Susie as she fills the pots with bedding plants.

For the records, had a lovely couple visit us for the music evening and weekend and they gave me a card, and I gave it to Nancy as they live nearer to the trekking site - but they were interested in my records of the 2000 Millennium celebration taking Elvis Preseli - the stone - to Stonehenge - well we failed but it was an effort that started in their village .

Cheers !

Thought for the day : "Just got attacked by a herd of cows - luckily I was just grazed"

Today had our first Peacock egg of the year ..

Thought for the day :"Avoid being pestered by wasps at BBQ's this year - cover a small child in jam.... Follow me for more parenting tips"

Playing Catchup, collecting signs, and clearing the decks and glasses

Counted out the Charity Pot - £73.50

Took Daina and Alex up to Aberystwyth for the Fire in the Mountain Festival near Trawscoed.

But on the way we did a quick trip to Llangrannog

  

Meanwhile, the Chickens have decided to get nearer to the house and extend their domain 

Cheers !

Not even a thought here 

15th May 2024 - Playing Catchup - German Visit

Thought for the day :"They say that one person in every group is a serial killer so I threw my mate off the cliff in case it was him"

Fun and Games in the Tavern and a bit of colour 

Cheers !

14th May 2024 - Playing Catchup - German Arrival

Thought for the day :"Writing a book about what I should have done in my life - it's an oughtobiography"

Cheers !

13th May 2024 - Preparing the Tavern

Thought for the day :"My friend with a stutter has just been sent to prison - I fear they will never finish their sentence"

Rain 96 : Dry 37 

Bag 29

Thought we were going to get away with it - but it has been raining non stop all day today 

Sadly had to clear the duck house, and decided to empty the duckponds as well at the same time - and after a while you don't get nay wetter!

And clearing the beer garden and the tunnel - so Susie can use the tunnel for cooking 

the before pictures 

and the after pictures

And the other job of the day, extending the kitchen table to take a larger group of people 

A lot of chat about the way the hinges should go - but we will see if it adversely affects the use of the table - I think not  

Susie has been clearing the house ....   Shopping this morning    ..  

Cheers !
