    Fed up now...

    It's rained all frigging day.

    Ho hum.

    Read on for existential angst.

    Buy now whilst stocks last.

    Feck me, I've done my back whilst gardening.

    Nearly completely fecked now.

    Send flowers & coffin.

    Back greatly improved as long as I keep moving.

    Seizes up otherwise.

    Weather dire, gales, rain, hail, snow & murrain of beasts.

    august going on January.

    Very satisfying bonfire yesterday.

    Got rid of loads of garden rubbish.

    Got thorn in hand despite wearing two pairs of gloves.

    Revenge of the dead bramble.

    It's rained all afternoon.

    Managed to vac both houses.

    Lunch was beef. which was very nice.


    Updation: down to 80k posts and under 3000 posts in this thread.

    It's grey grey drizzly and grey today.

    Today is (or was) sunny, but it's getting a bit overcast now.

    Yesterday's gardening has almost prepared the new patch of lawn for seeding.

    Just have to dig the last bit today, then rake it, tread it, and seed it.

    Might have it done by tomorrow if my back holds out.

    And lo! the soon to be lawn has been raked, treaded, raked again, treaded, raked again, seeded, raked.

    And there was enough seed in the box to do it.

    I note that it's not the same type of seed that I used the last time but there you go.

    So, tomorrow, we shall do something different.


    The endless gardening is forever ongoing, however my work on this thread is now complete.

    It's about 50% of its prior length, which should save some disk space.

    Expect no more posts.

    Down to 72,663 now.

    It's been glorious in Peterborough all day*, I only wish the canteen served Pimms.



    *apart from being Peterborough of course
    Cooking doesn't get tougher than this.

                At exactly 17:15, just as Flight KL1064 was about to start boarding.
