I've been thinking about ordering seeds, but the post here in Wales is so hopeless that I'm waiting till we go home. Here they won't deliver parcels, you have to collect them from the local sorting office... Within 3 days. That isn't a typo for 30 days, it really is 3 days. Oh, and they're only open from 7-9am. At least my birthday cards were delivered to the field post box. Which I can't walk to (must be about 100 yards or more, each way), but OH fetches the post.
Having a pallet sawing up day tomorrow. DS1 said he's coming to help but not sure how good he'll be as one of the kiwis he's working with is having a leaving do so I imagine a sore head and chainsaw aren't going to mix. DD1 is away for an interview for a milking job possibly only going to be parttime. Garden is more of a jungle. Just about managed to keep up with cutting grass and nothing else. Going away next week for a couple of nights for our wedding anniversary.

I shall leave it in there and let the frosts deal with it.
Weather here turned stormy and wet. Went to go out on Monday but half a tree across the track. So been sawing it up today - well dragging it down to the house to saw up. Shouldn't have planted crack willow next to the track. Hens have eventually come on the lay - they were younger than the guy reckoned on they were. Have been making extension pens out of an old clothes rail and strawberry netting and they now have tunnels of these into other pens areas. So gives them fresh areas to turn over. I feel better about that as don't like to keep them penned but needs must.
Friends appeared but are heading home coz of the rubbish weather - they'd been camping after taking their son back to Aberdeen Uni & their tent poles snapped. Offered them a bed but they just wanted to head home to N of England so long drive in horrid weather. Roads been busy & every lay-by filled with campers - rubbish everywhere & 141 fires in Highlands in August so not a great time for the emergency services as also quite a lot of bad accidents on the roads.
Numbers of Covid starting to spike here after we've had it relatively easy so looks like we'll be locked down in the not too distant future.
Friend got two dogs so cat has just appeared from hiding out. Dark now - seems like we are racing into Autumn with leaves turning yellow and the winds & rain back.
Waves to Rozee pozee - where about are you - I forgot? Congrats on your house and all your hard work coming to fruition.
Rozee - I've changed sex since you were on here - I used to be Choille but had a fight with some big fellas & got banned.
I don't know why they tinkered with it - probably a boy thing. They had to stick their screw driver into the back of the monitor and messed up.
