    This does seem a bountiful year for acorns.

    My rear garden borders six other area's......four other gardens...an end to a cul-de-sac and finally a Scouts compound which has a large wooded area of oak trees.....these oak trees are very tall and have a huge spread of branches which stretch at least thirty feet plus into my garden....and are dropping acorns at approximately one every 10 seconds.

    We have raked up over the last three weeks..... two full to the brim garden wheelie bins....these bins weigh so much it is difficult to tip the bin and wheel it out to the kerb side.....so I just drag it.

    When indoors you can hear acorns bouncing off the greenhouse all the time.....and walking in that part of the garden can be quite dangerous.....they can be quite painful falling from quite an height on to your head.

    If scouts did bob-a-job still (shilling ago if I remember) they can come round and pick-em up themselves.

    Good job it's your head then. My grannie used to say no sense no feeling after all.

    You do insist on doing a running commentary on boats don't you. Still blaming one party when it's been an ongoing problem since Brexit and still none of the parties have come up with a cure let alone Farage. Still don't get that the increase in incoming has been vastly increased since Brexit and the French not being bothered anymore. Fuily enough I was reading about that and Brexit on the Beeb News page yesterday. You should read that it's been fact checked.
