Well, don't bother catapulting any over here thank you!! I'll stick to buying it without the pong!!! Been there and done that!!!!

You could always use it in the garden at Nut Lodge as a deterrent!

Oh what a good idea. Do you think it would keep Sweetpea at bay LOL

No way!! There's nothing that will stop that little terror!!

Oh well it was just a thought LOL.

I'm off now to toast a teacake and make a cuppa, then bed!

I'll catch you tomorrow in between pond emptying and greenhouse cleaning!! I'm doing some jobs until 3pm and then planning to watch Catherine Cookson. Son is coming with the gchildren, but not sure what time. Bet it's when I get involved in the programme!!

Sleep well LG, nite nite xx

You can guarantee family turning up just as you get into watching something LOL. Bed sounds a good idea must conserve some energy for tomorrow. I will be looking in most of the day I expect when I take breaks. Nite nite Yg hope you sleep well x

Hey, LaGooner - just mailed you a package. was told it will take 4 - 5 weeks !!!!!!!!!!! Must be going by dog sled.

And yes it did snow in Canada on Friday(my brother had blizzard conditions hehehe) , plus high winds blowing over transport trucks, trees, cars, tiles off roofs.

morning i am going to be busy today lol ,sunday lunch to cook ,help Andrew with my stairs ,the high bits then carry on there tomorrow ,I am going to get the mower out today ..not seeing frog until Friday so I can get stuck in and finish .the house i am going to get some curtains down and wash them .cushions etc so there is an end in sight lol
YG you have been a busy bee too .

Morning all, I hope it's going to be warm again today because my heating's off again. Looks like I'll have to get a new system put in - this one's on it's last legs.

I worked in the garden all day yesterday, it was a lovely sunny day.

My ponds need cleaning out as well but they're still full of frog's spawn so I'll have to wait until they turn into little frogs and hop off. I hate that smell when you pull the reeds and things out.

LG don't you have any frog's spawn in your ponds?

I didn't know that stock seeded itself, I've always pulled it out as soon as it died - won't be doing that again.

Maz, you must be nearly finished now.

Morning all, I have tons of frog spawn so I just fish it out into a bucket then put it back afterwards. I have to do it now as the fish will be starting to breed within a couple of weeks and that B*****s me doing it til Autumn when it is too cold. I can't leave it any longer as it has not been done for 6 years and also taking advantage of the fact that this is the last week youngest lad will be here to help me. He and girlfriend move into there own house on Thursday so wish me luck LOL

Morning LG, your Maj. Would you like to find the thread, "lap tops the dumb question of the week" on the General board and see if you can help.

I told them I would ask.

Now you see Aunty running away very quickly and locking herself in the padded cell!!

Morning darlings....and my Petal Gooner.......just to let you know my pond is also full of gooey stuff..and now, as always the frogs have been followed by toads, who are all over the place....have to be very careful not to step on them at night.

Derek xx

Ah morning Derek how are you petal ?? How's the ankle doing.



Aunty as I tell Pauline you can run but you can't hide I will catch you in the end LOl !!!!!!

Right brekkie done, now off out to the swamp to make a few frogs,toads,fish etc homeless whilst I am enthusiastic about it. LOL.
NOTE!!!! OH has done a crafty and gone out for the day.

I do apologise. However if one mentions the word toad no red blooded Australian is going to resist answering, "Cane toad".

Here it is. This is what we are expected to tread on.

Make a bit more noise Maz, you'll wake him if you bang a few pans together, I think it works for DET.

I've had a look at youtube Aunty, poor Baz!

Saucepan and wooden spoon? Certainly works here!!!!! But I do make sure he is vaguely awake first - don't want him having a heart attack!!!!!!

Did Aunty managed to get back to sleep? She was up at 2.30 am her time - silly so and so.

Enjoy your time in the garden. Cooler here today than it has been, so don't think we will be sitting out with a coffee. Love the smell of Night Scented Stocks, but never been able to find seeds to buy.
