    Wow, thats high. Laughable here, where it barely gets to one cm high. You must have a large area to mow. Because we are really living on a bush block, it's let go natural (untidy) with the occasional garden bed for me to play in. Hubby uses both a tractor with a slasher and a ride-on mower. He still manages to knock off a blade on hidden rocks.image Then there is a slow walk around the paddock until we find the blade and nut/washer.

    Right. Insomnia wins. 

    I'm up dressed , second cup of tea and two washing means loaded and running..

    Pat 4" is the highest setting and , as I said, it's struggling in places.

    We gardeners never ever seem to have " perfect" plots do we? tee hee.

    29 degrees here so socks and long pants swapped for bare feet and shorts.  Crazy weather!

    Oh dear Hosta - what a rubbish nightimage. Good luck with the grass.

    Enjoy your little bit of Indian summer Patimage

    What a great weekend.  Apart from the glorious weather, the Garden Festival was great - I had picked 3 excellent speakers, and the gardens at the venue were lovely (in a grand way) too.  Then yesterday we took a trip out to a local-ish waste contractor who is going to deliver us a lorry load of recycled green waste/soil conditioner so that I can treat my flower beds. We bought 3 bags home as a sample, and it is lovely stuff.  Spread it already, and it makes the beds look great .......one very happy Chicky image

    Hi Chicky. That sounds like a really good Sunday's effort.  

    I changed into a tank top because the shirt was tooo hot Then went out to check the GH and it's 40 c in there (I haven't closed the door for months). It's hard to decide what to wish for.

    Good morning all image G'day Pat image  I said it would turn warmer once you put the flannelette sheets on the bed!image

    Sorry you've had a bad night  Hosta - maybe mowing today will numb your brain to sleep tonight. 

    That sounds like a really good weekend Chicky. image

    It's dull and overcast here this morning ...
