Rotting sheep our dog rolled in when out with the dog walker once. Can't remember whether the walkers dog initiated that or our dog but the walker was so apologetic and even washed our dog several times before returning. Saved us a job as she'd been rolling in something else day before.
Dog was growling yesterday evening. I can only think it was the wind. After your neighbours bin incident I bet you did a bit of growling over your neighbour too!
Glad we moved. Two open skips where we used to live would have been messy this morning.
Northern Jo you could say I "growled" for 8 years, we got his bins in from the verge to the garden,since retiring,he hadn't moved ours ONCE, not even when it's been left by their drive, which actually blocks the view when driving out onto the road. It's not the first time. Just missed my car,on my irises, lucky they aren't flowering yet.
Posting here on behalf of @WonkyWomble who is struggling to repair her greenhouse in the teeth of a gale. If anyone has a large windbreak and a couple of elephants to hold it down she would appreciate a loan of them. Grrrr!

Our unidentified terrier mix dog (looks like a Wheaten terrier but has a stubborn character) loves to roll and is adept at finding piles of fox poo in the garden, especially when she's just been to have her potentially dreadlock coat trimmed and she's clean and perfumed.
Both stink so we don't mind having to give her a shower and shampoo. She is less keen. When we lived in Belgium she'd find Canada and Egyptian goose poo and that too is very smelly.
The Labrador doesn't roll but does like to jump in muddy ditches, especially in winter and spring when they're up to his shoulders in murky water. Being smooth coated a hose down from the outside tap does for him and then a good shake and a rub down.

Cor,kili that's so neat,! I normally plant my hanging baskets up at Easter,but it was early this year, so we did them the following week. I never plant tender bedding or veg out till the very last days of may
Hi Nanny Beach. Neat! Er indoors would beg to differ methinks.
I've been very lucky, was given the greenhouse and two of the aluminum shelving units and bought one for £20 from someone getting rid of a greenhouse. I have acquired or been given nearly all of the trays the plants reside in except for the Trug at the front which I purchased. Its got strawberry plants in at the mo as me and the grand daughter like to have a good scoof when I collect her from school.. We have flowers on it so 6 weeks to our first strawberry I guess
The trays certainly make it easer for hardening off as nice and easy to move the plants out on to the patch of green I call a lawn and back in at the end of the day.
The hanging basket you see is a left over from last year I put in the greenhouse over winter. I wanted to see if the Red Velour Petunia would come back in the spring and it did. I've had about 20 cuttings from it taken so far.
