Off work until 28th, but no rest for the wicked. Cutting a tree down this afternoon then got to set the casks of ale up in the bar as they have to settle for 24 hrs. Bloody Xmas it's all go!!
One that is in the way of parking our cars out front. It's only about 10ft tall, but because we cut it back every year, trunk is about 10" thick and it has loads of honeysuckle growing through it, it's a pain to cut the branches back as it's about 30 years old. I have now got it looking like the Joshua tree on U2's album cover so it's days are numbered. I will finish it off tomorrow having filled a wheelie bin and three bulk bags which held a ton of soil each previously, will take at least three trips to the tip to get rid of it. I will keep the main trunk and cut it up for the corner of the garden where the hedgehogs live.
What's up, hedgehogs have to live somewhere and in our garden we have a family each year, and they live where I put all the timber from trees we have cut back. I like to encourage wildlife in the garden. There is nothing better than sitting in the lounge looking at a pair of great tits swinging away in the garden..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... as they feed on the peanuts hanging in the feeder on the bird table
In our previous house, where we had an acre of garden we had your favourite animal living in a bank at the bottom of the garden never saw them dance though.
I'd obviously prefer to see these two swinging away in the garden, but the wife said it would upset the neighbours please log in to view this image
