LATEST MOAN FROM YOU AND ME 2020

Just called the doctors.
There is now a two week wait if you need to speak to a doctor over the phone, only if you state it is an emergency will they speak to you on the same day.

They ask why you are requesting a call from the doctor.

 

OK, I dont often buy insecticides these days as none of them seem to work on anything other than aphids, but thought I'd get a bottle of concentrate for any emergencies.
Still trying to find a legal RSM killer.

Went to the garden centre and had a look, they only had the Provado copy, Provanto, but that didn't even mention RSM.
So went somewhere else, they had Bug Clear Ultra 2, so searching the box for the actual active ingredient, this did show RSM.
After much searching I found it contained rapeseed oil????????

£8.99 for a very small bottle of rapeseed oil seemed a bit much to me, I can get a gallon in Morrisons for a fiver.

So ended up buying Rose clear, which was the only thing I could find that actually contained chemicals that stand a chance of doing the job, but rose clear contains an insecticide and a fungicide, which I didn't want, so where is the sense in that, two chemicals when I only wanted the one.

But the funniest thing I find is that none seem to claim to kill pests, they only "Control" them.
Sounds like a cop out to me and mostly expensive stuff I've already got under the sink.

 

Couriers!

A couple of recent examples, one was getting a delivery confirmation that my parcel had been delivered through my letterbox, when it was a tent, and the other was claiming my 'safe place' was in the gutter outside my house.

 

You have got to laugh. Usually here they say there is no such address and send things back. Quite a surprise for the homeowner who has lived there for donkey's years.

 

I go out and get the parels from the couriers and they alway take a pic of me holding the box

 

WE've got it on 3 sides, to the right, to back and to the front (road) but luckly it's rained and the smell is gone

They now saying that farmer mustn't spread to close to water course's/boreholes etc but when it come's to the road it get a wee bit of a clean up then the rest gets washed into the ditch when it rain's RULES

But i don't mind the smell of good poo

 

It's great to live in the countryside
We're not far from beoly village and we get that smell at this time of year.

 

Box Blight....

It wasn't there yesterday ....been dousing it with 'Fungus fighter Plus' this morning...it worked last year so fingers crossed...this 'ere Box hedging will be the piggin' death of me but it'll have to get up early in a morning to get past a Loli

 

Did the lamp post have a number on it?


Google navigation incorrectly sends drivers across a local private country estate, and Amazon drivers must be using that app, because they drive along the private roads until they reach a remote control operated security gate and leave their parcels in the road where we find them early of a morning on dog walks and phone their security number. Sometimes they're for estate workers cottages, but often for people in villages on the other side of the estate.

 

I once had a delivery from Am***n who said parcel had been delivered, along with a photo of said parcel.
Unfortunately the door it was at wasn’t ours
