    It is very strange behaviour. Normally people would not buy a house with a garden unless they were mildly interested in maintaining the garden.

    Perhaps they have won a lot of money and so were able to move into a larger house. I think this is often the case when you see people in a house who you might not expect to live there.

    It might be a good idea to make friends with them.

    What else is going on in the neighbourhoods?

    Have the builders arrived Kate?

    Have The Bill been back Becks?

    Ballon man has decided to take a few days off, and won't be making any more attempts before Sunday.

  • Good morning all,

    There's nothing happening in my neck of the wood, quiet as the grave .Everyone's away on their hols. Some people buy their house just for the house and don't consider the garden at all,. Then they move in and realise that gardening' is jolly hard work and it is easier to pay someone else to "tidy" it up. The results often speak for them selves.

    A little snippet from todays Daily Mail. - apparently scientists have discovered that mice can be taught to sing, well Bagpuss knew that! The next job for Gareth maybe, a mouse choir, imageimage

    There is a lovely cartoon to go with the article. A little mouse sitting on a stool playing a guitar with couple looking on. One says to the other. "Well I knew he could sing but didn't know he could play the guitar." just my sense of humour.imageimage

    Have a good day, no rain here as yet.

    This is a singing mouse:

    It is important to know what they sound like, even if you can't understand what they are saying. If you hear that kind of noise during the night. Don't worry. It's just a mouse.

    I have to report that raindrops are making ripples in puddles again and a leaf has just fallen from a treeimage

    :- D :- D Chris, Gareth's mouse choir. Will other rodents be required? Rats for the tenors, squirrels for the baritones, perhaps.

    Love your helianthuses / helianthi Gary. Lots of small flowers are still lovely. Wet here, don't feel like doing a lot.

  • How cute is that Gary, now I know what to listen for.image,

    How about whales and dolphins ? They could also be included in the choir image

    Gary, I know this people to talk to and they seem like nice people. They own a busy pub so maybe they just haven't got the time ? image

    For a smaller fee , I could have done that for them. image Except for the conifers, I don't like heights.
