Morning, love, how are you?
The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.
Great Paula thanks for asking, how's yourself?
Spent yesterday moving some paving slabs from the front of the house to the back so I can finish my path off when the weather is consistently better. Fired up my bladblazer (sounds better than leaf blower) blew the leaves off my lawns into a heap had hoped to blow them to the compost heap but the heap was so big and progress stopped at the start of my veggie plot. Drained the oil from the aforesaid bladblazer so must remember to fill with 0.08 litres of oil (okay I looked that up) also need more petrol the lawns are a bit squidgy in places but now at least the acres of moss isn't smotheredSoil is very wet and sticky so no rotavating my spud patch yet as it needs to dry up first.
Prior to all that was it Friday or Saturday I fixed my new hose reel to the wall, stripped some wallpaper off the kitchen wall as it it got a bit ripped up when I removed some old cable as mentioned in a previous post.
Seed potatoes have arrived so that's about it.

Without moss, my lawn wouldn’t ever be green
I’m ok, ta, enjoying the sunshine!

Are you totally redecorating the kitchen now?

Hubby cut the grass for the first time this year at the weekend.
Now the fun starts. We keep him going as he is so particular about the lawns, how they are cut, etc etc. No one ever can cut them as well as him.gif "(rofl)")

NOPE the area behind the stove wants tiling and I'm re-papering where a rad is going I didn't intend that but finding some old cable which resulted in chunks of plaster cascading off the wall so a bit of plastering (done) then some papering and I'm back where I was a week ago putting in my new rad.Originally Posted by Suzi
Haha an expert greensman me thinks cutting my lawns is more akin to a moss rolling contestHubby cut the grass for the first time this year at the weekend.

Just back from a walk to the local garage 5 litres of petrol, 2 litres of oil £18 which added to the £42 I've already spent on compost, seed spuds and veg seeds gives a total of £60 already so these veggies aren't gonna be cheap

But they'll be delicious!

Last few days I've been occupied with leaf collecting, moved two great heaps to the compost heap and there is still more to collect.
Was pro-active and replaced the deteriorating petrol pipe for my blower with a piece of pipe bought from a well known online retailer only to find the following day the pipe had snapped off both at the carb end and the fuel filter end it had become very fragile due to the solvent action of the petrol so found another length of pipe and that seems okay.
