It's a slack line for the kids, it's well slack.

They were two walnut trees, which suddenly died a couple of years ago.

A minor victory; recently completed an online claim for tax relief on union subs and professional fees for the past four years and this arrived today. Not sure what'll happen to the other three years...

 

[Barking Mat]

That's a lovely garden.

No, it's an overgrown bloody mess, full of vehicles, and a 300 year old Oak tree. One day it'll bé tidy.

@nickk just to give a vague Idea.

It's a mess, a huge mess, but it's my mess. And i kind of liké it.. One day.

Ducks, they poo everywhere, due to a slight grammatical misunderstanding i bought mâle ducks, which don't lay eggs, well not thé edible type. Hey ho, live and learn, cannes not canards.

You only have to see past your hoarding & lack of GM, to see how lovely a garden that is.

Yeah, it's a potentially lovely garden, but the drive on lawn mower died, the cheap replacement...

Anybody understand Briggs and Stratton carbs...

Wife is quite happy with a strimmer and self propelled lawn mower.

I leave it to her.

What's the GM reference ?

I'm just glad you'll never be near anything of mine. You're brutal.

They still go well with a little orange sauce!

 

[Barking Mat]

@MattF I hope your not referring to general maintenance, you should have seen it when we bought it.

Yeah, this year the gardens not been looked after, as we've had other more important issues to deal with.

They're too fat to fly, but they're pets, not food.

It's any ones for fifteen hundred euros and that's cheap.

I just seem to have an issue with selling stuff.

Must get over it.

Is it the putting it up for sale and selling it bit that you struggle with?

The thought never crossed my mind. That place has some good potential.
