Latest moan from you and me - 2016

@Linz yelling, swearing in front of children, minors . that is horrid. there can be charges for that.

 

Postmen who can't read!
Fed up with getting mail for the house next-door-but-one. Which makes me wonder ...

... where is mine going?!

 

It's so annoying when you buy a plant, then when it flowers it turns out not to be the one you bought

I thought I was buying Hydrangea Ayesha but ended up with this:







I've emailed them so will see what they come back with.

 

But it is a pretty lace cap. needs a home, poor baby.

 

It will have a good home - if they don't want it back it will go to the local church where they have a five year plan to fill the graveyard with plants.

 

I've just purchased a solar fountain - assembled it - placed outside - 60 seconds later the sun goes behind cloud - not to return for the next week at least . Oh, well..I saw it working for that 60 seconds - it was quite nice when it did .

 

Sorry to laugh @clanless but that really hit my funny bone. I bought a solar fountain (once) and I was very lucky that we has sun that year. But, despite the reviews, I found it to be pretty useless compared to a proper one. Mind you, mine looked quite nice for at least a day before I became disappointed with it

 

I have two of them, had them for years. They work from 10AM to about 4PM in my gardens. Love them.

 

Had problem starting ride on mower (solenoid not working), i lived we it for a few months then i got fed up so bought a new one, so far since buying the new one it's started every time when you turn the key, haven't fitted the new solenoid yet

 

The suns out - the fountain is working - hurrah

 

Had some new moo's put in the field by the house, then the farmer added 2 more, one of them has been restlest all day, then she thought that she would liven things up a bit and try and jump the fences between field and house(post & rail (our fence) post & wire (farmers but very good) about 5 foot high and with a gap of 3 feet) well she got stuck on top of both fences and couldn't do anything her self, so we had to push she back (she weights about 3/4 to 1 ton) but as moo's do she wanted to come in with us but we said no , any way we got her back into the field after some hard pushing

Why did she jump the fences, well, i think she was moved from another farm but her best friend didn't come with her and she seen her own reflection in our window and thought i'd get in there
