    Morning Woo,Helen and all, had a good time clearing leaves yesterday blown off with those stong winds, ended up putting some of them back some frogs must have thought it was a good idea to hibernate in them,last week on one of the frosty nights was checking on the g/house heating and outside the door was a newt,it would have froze it should have been well hibernated,ended up putting it in a plant pot in the g/house should see the winter out in there ok, have a safe day everyone.

Who knows maybe the sun will shine today!!! Well in between the showers perhaps... Have a good day whatever you may all be doing... [​IMG] :D

    Good morning everyone,
    MF, your lucky, I have been clearing leaves for weeks but there are still loads to go :eek: . The willows will still be dropping their leaves for weeks, the silver birches have still got quite a lot and so have the cherry prunus. The buddleias, contorted hazels and maples have lost almost no leaves so far.

    On Friday and Saturday I shifted about 20 cubic metres of leaves which was rather hard on my poor old back :eek: [​IMG] . It seems never ending [​IMG]

    I have loads of leaves too in my back garden, must pick up a rake!

    Yeah travelodges accept animals but they can be funny over the 'r' word. When i travel to rat shows i know some other people have had real trouble getting them in the rooms in the past. I have heard stories of rats being smuggled through windows, in carriers in big sports hold alls... you name it!

    I'll likely be out to have a tackle at the garden today, but its wet and i wouldn't know where to start! I thnk i'll start by pulling up the bigger plants and just jamming them in a bin bag.

    My neighbour will be over to help with the rest so i'll make a start!

    Good morning everyone,I haven't been up long as I overslept this morning due to not having enough sleep for the last two nights.I don't really feel withit at the moment :rolleyes:

    Woo and Walnut I would be terrified walking round creepy woods in the dark :eek: You would need one of those 1,000,000 candle powered torches to see where you were going surly? [​IMG] :D

    Enjoy your day everyone in all you do [​IMG]

    [​IMG] Morning all, Hope you enjoyed your walk Woo... Haven't done any really early morning walks like that for a long time. A friend & I used to do that about 12 or more years ago to the lower wood. If we were lucky sometimes we would hear a nightingale... Those days are long gone now though & sadley there are no nightingales left up there now.... Have a great day everyone, whatever you are doing..! :D
