    Fruitcake , always nice to see a picture ?

    last year somebody put a post on about Cape Gooseburys and I saved the details on my iPad , bit of a coincidence I thought , as I fancied having a go , always like to try something different each year image

  • I'll try and post a pic from my phone later. Please bear with me as its a new phone and I'm still trying to figure it out. 

    Not got any plans for videos at the moment, not until I can go up there and actually do something productive, which it isn't really at the moment image 

    we have just taken the chicken house out of the boxes, and I need to paint it. I had huge problems in the summer with painting my fences and ronseal paint being crap, so luckily I have some other paint leftover from the stuff I bought to replace it. Ideally, I'd love to paint it yellow but the site is visible from the main road and if I did that, it'd stand out like a belisha beacon! So very dark brown it'll have to be image 

  • Fruitcake there is not much to be videoing at min

    Ginagibbs as you watched the Sean video on you tube I just brought the orange and blue trays that he has, I like bright colours

  • Fruitcake what a great sized chicken run - is that what you have to put the chicken wire over think you need a ladder

  • Yes GG, Putting the wire on the top part is going to be tricky, especially with the ground still being so wet

    Fruitcake, the chicken run is looking goodimage.

    Weather's looking good here for tomorrow so hoping to get to the plot in the morning. Best part of today was spent helping at a kiddie's party. Friend decided to invite the entire class to the twins birthdayimage the magician was fabulous and a good time was had by allimage.

    Nearly purchased a cherry tree from Aldi but I've more than enough fruit tree's at present. Did get some chilli seeds from B and M, at 89p, they were a bargin for 4 varieties on seed discsimage.
