LATEST MOAN FROM YOU AND ME 2017

Not having a countdown calendar"days until last frost" similar to an advant calendar. Then each day I would at least get a chocolate to chew on instead of champing at the bit !

 

Mother's day over here is usually the final click for the last frost. So May 13 or so. @CanadianLori

 

@redstar I do know when it is for my area. I just wish we had some little reward system for the last leg of the wait!

 

My reward is I am gone on holiday the first 2 weeks in May to Key West, Florida for four days and then this year to St. Maartens. then home for a week to garden before returning to work.
But I will miss the continued flowering of all my bulbs while gone, and my cats.

 

Well. Here I go!
Sycamore (insert swear word of choice) Trees!!!!
we have 3 huge trees at the back of garden that block the light. Last year after a lot of climbing (love it) I took down many branches to thin them out. I left enough for the birds to congregate in as I couldn't be without photography out there. I also have bird boxes mounted high up in them which proved successful last year.

My moan is, the 'helicopters', as we always thought of them as kids, have rooted everywhere. I kid you not, Hundreds of them in every pot, border, and crevice available. I've been pulling them out all day and still loads to go. It's taking more time than imaginable. On a good note though, I'm getting rid of lots of weeds at the same time.
Enjoy your day, people.

 

I wish we had a rating button for astonishment/shock because sometimes I really am astonished by some posts

 

My moan, being a lazy s.o.a.b. I start doing stuff and getting put off. CBA syndrome.. Pfft.

 

Going to bed too late, constantly, then missing the early mornings that I used to crave. Must start setting alarm clock.

 

So when and where do you sleep shiney??

 

My moan is Ladies who don't put the Loo lid down, yes ok us men get told off for not putting the seat down after using the loo. My daughter & Grandaughter live with me ( not my choice) I bought an expensive toilet mat set, never see the lid cover as it's always up.
