I use a garden vac, most are from the azaleas now and I'll bin them.
I did a bit this afternoon, more wiring of the acer palmatums and the trunk of the mimosa. There was fine rain in the air, so I couldn't collect...

Wednesdays are my golf days, so I'm "excused evening catering duties." We had a Chinese meal delivered.
Although it's quite cold, it's dry. I fed the birds, then got into this Amber clematis and jasmine. The latter never stops growing through the...
I often follow cycling on TV, I was a keen cyclist in my youth. I hung on to my Claude Butler, for a few years after I bought my first car. A...
As It's too wet to do any gardening, I've been playing my electric piano. I got round to playing this. I realised I'd not added to my two hundred...
It looks like the weather will prevent much work in the garden over the whole week-end, although fortunately I'm pretty much up to date with...
Thanks for the kind words. I really don't think about my age. If I think I'm able to tackle something, I just get on with it. I'll be 85 in April.
I got quite a bit done this afternoon. I pruned more off next door's silver birches where they overhang our garden. What I wanted to prune was...

I finished wiring the two acer palmatums. I had plenty of net. I used it to cover my koi pool to protect it from falling leaves in the autumn....
Very frosty out, temperature at -1c. So probably no work in the garden, but I've chores to do. First load of washing is on.
It was a golf day today, so I didn't get into the garden until after 2.00pm. This only gave me a couple of hours to get things done. But I got...
What always puzzles me, is that "back in the day," it was illegal to have a TV in a car where the driver could see the screen. Now the dashboard...
As it was dry this afternoon, I pruned the last wisteria. [IMG] I removed quite a bit of old growth. I started at 2.00pm and it only took me...
I got into this wisteria on the pergola attached to the garage this afternoon. I do this around this time every year. I only needed my step-stool...
Have you a two piece post hole spade? These can be hired. When I erected a 6ft post and panel fence twenty years ago, between ours and a...
