WHAT JOBS ARE WE DOING IN THE GARDEN TODAY 2018

Been building a bird box this afternoon from a left over pallet. I haven't fixed the roof on yet , not sure if to make it a bit longer and use a thinner wood, I haven't left enough room at the top to screw it on the shed really so the thinner wood would help. Got some felt to put on it as well.

 

It Black Adder but I am still worried, its supposed to be hardly. Its got a mulch of leaves and bucket on top.

 

Hold on a minute i wasn't criticizing anything i was stating a fact

 

@Doghouse Riley ... I was hoping you would be able to help Luci to sort out the levels. I think the main difficulty is the fact that the project is on a slope - quite a steep one at that, which means that one side will appear too high - obviously. It rather looks like the helper is trying to form some kind of ''collar'' with the loose blocks on the lower side.

 

Yes you were.

The "fact" was that you quoted my suggestions and were criticising them. I wouldn't have mentioned it otherwise.

Well I was doing my best!

It would also concern me that there is quite a slope down to the pool. Care will be needed to ensure any run off from higher ground doesn't end up in the pool. But as I said, it's difficult to visualise it completely from the photos provided.

 

Yes, I know you were

 

No i was stating facts and having my own opinion on the subject just because you think a pond needs a concrete collar its not essential,

My point was, why complicate matters when there is no need for a concrete collar just because you have one , Luci is struggling enough as we can see and your making matter worse, then want to cause a argument like you have elsewhere,

This is my last post on the matter you can argue with yourself :rasp:

Personally as mentioned is having an opinion not criticism

Fact

Fact

Fact
:rasp:

 

Grow up Martin. You wouldn`t rate a helpful post with ''funny'' if you were not being critical and childish.

 

i don't know what your talking about but you can go and argue with yourself as well :rasp:

 

RHS has it down to -10 or -15, Blue Fortune much lower. I've mulched too but with grit, as I'm more worried about the wet and cold doing the damage rather than the temp. Fingers crossed for you in the North, I forgot to take cuttings

 

Oh good should be ok as long as the winter wet doesn't get it as well. I've got some golden jubilee seedling growing as well

 

Agreed A

But what i don't understand why this is mentioned in a quote ? i see nothing wrong with it, would you please explain what the issue with it is please.
