Yawn, Yawn, Wakey Wakey!! 2016

We're the opposite. We don't open our windows much and don't leave them, doors, open if we're in the garden. Too much wildlife likes coming in - cats, squirrels, meeces, the occasional bird, wasps, bees, butterflies, mozzies and other flying insects and even a rabbit, once.

I don't know of anyone here who has insect screens as we rarely have much problem here. They may have them in parts of Scotland where they get a lot of midges but I haven't seen them.

I, also, don't know anyone who has screens on their back doors.

It's interesting to find out about things you wouldn't normally think of.

Over here we still have mail delivered to the door (except in certain circumstances) and in rural areas like ours the postman will take our outgoing mail as well. All we have to do is leave it sticking out of the letterbox on our front door and he'll take it when he's delivering.

Milk deliveries are still possible in most areas, with the milkman bring it in proper glass bottles - but it's almost twice the price of the milk in cartons in the supermarket. When we first moved here the milkman did his rounds in a horse drawn cart.

 

Good morning @Michael Hewett and all my other friends have a lovely day and enjoy every minute of it

 

Aloha everyone,

I've been getting a lot done in the garden but not as much as @wiseowl has.

More weeding and mowing - and harvesting - to do today as well as paperwork and going into town to do shopping and see some of my 'girls' (ex-employees). Barbeque tonight - not in Shineyland.

Sprinkler is on and blackbirds are playing in the spray.

Keep well and have a great day

Aloha!

 

@"M" happy fourth

The Glorious 11th

It's depreciation that has dropped it from the 12th

 

Ahh yes @shiney my friend but I am an erratic gardener not like your good self who holds a steady course and is a consistent gardener every day,

Happy 4th anniversary @"M" my friend

 

@wiseowl Should we start a Mutual Admiration Society?
