I batch everything in twos when i freeze stuff, and being a single man now [emoji4] it just means i have to kinda eat a similar version of what i’ve took out twice a week. I hate waste, so dont mind if i eat exactly the same stuff two days on the bounce either but i do try to switch it a little if i can.

Where abouts are you? I put raised beds in, been in since 2016 and are fine as of yet, just look weathered obviously. I lined all the inside of mine though with old aluminium long vehicle boards that we fit to our trailers at work. We tend to fit new plates at every m.o.t so had an abundance of them. That was before i built my rockery in the middle This is a good twelve months later after i did rockery etc, you can see the sleepers have started to weather, get that silvering effect.

Tonights food intake..... steak with leftover beetroot, some mushroom peppercorn sauce again and some mighty fine macsween haggis [emoji4]

Swallowed some of that on the night time ? the bud was a can left over from xmas givings that i found at back of the ale cupboard.

Hope he washed his hands!

Do we know if it is paired with another? 14yr old at least then [emoji106] good spot of info there Pete [emoji119]

Yeah its been in local news round us, i believe there is a breeding pair in the old quarry by stocks reservoir but not seen em myself. We have a peregrine falcon pair in quarry at work, been there a good 4 or 5 years now i rekon.

Not my picture, a local wagon driver took it from the on-slip road to M6 at Brockholes Nature Reserve (junction 31) Osprey, did well to get a shot so up close really, stunning bird though!

Spuds were good, reduced in local shop, 40p [emoji16] beetroot was crap compared to my dads home grown, steak was from lidl[emoji108]and peppercorn sauce was a cheat, asda granuals and boiling water added to mushrooms cooked in butter [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] still enjoyed it like [emoji4]

So.... 4am get up, breakfast brew at 8am with a couple of mini pork pies. Finished work at 2:30pm went and put a temporary lamb shelter up at a mates field, with this bad wind on the way it’ll be brutal for the newborns, one born only a few hours ago too. 4:30pm on my way home and i’m chuffing hank marvin...... so dug this lot out the fridge [emoji6] 10 mins later, made a bit too much of the mushroom peppercorn sauce but hey ho, and i don’t do waste so on it went [emoji16]

Shouldn’t need any mint sauce if your lamb is A1 [emoji108]

Put drain in up against my garage, garage forms the boundary against nextdoor. Stoned up ready for setts to go in. Setts in ready for pointing up and a couple of flags. Bit fiddly but job done and looks tidy [emoji106] On to flagging my back garden area next. Rather enjoying this weather [emoji6][emoji106]

She snorts cock-roach too ta know!

Yeah thats the one, i kinda remembered the link across to your house and a arch. Wonder why its not thriving the same as others given what you’ve said [emoji848]

[emoji51] ah bless..... bet that hurt ya! [emoji23]

Quality!!! ???

Did you not post a pic of your gaff, similar time last year Mick with something that you were “training” and said it would give off an abundance of colour once ready?.... or am i mixed up with someone else?

I dont mind any of em really, bar a few. Starlings are out and out bullies and need a tap round head at times, especially regards food and bathing. Little dunnocks are fine, just make a mess of my borders and paths when weathers good. They love their dry soils and bird baths! Biggest peeve is bloody seagulls, rife round us at min and dont half leave the albatross affect when they’ve been!

Well... Simon does my chuffing head in! Swan needs to either wear a chuffing nappy or learn to shat in a potty! Old McGinty is pretty sound, pops in every now and then. Furious Half inch needs to sod off and leave my freshly laid borders alone... chuffing soil all over my paths! Pterodactyl needs to grow up rapid and stop being such an arrogant selfish bully! Insane bastard is a cool half back in my book! Ruffled Tightarse could be a little less shy if she wanted! Judi Dench Night Terror needs to learn how to share the bath water in such hard times! Albino Duck wants an elastic band round his snout at 5am in a morning! Crested Wanksock needs to be less fussy when he visits the food bank! Unkempt Snatch it seriously nearing my telescopic sights.... cheeky shite! Good old Don’t know and Midget of Death should learn to get along at the local pool! Hungarian Cock Gobbler is a top banana and can visit with his old lass anytime he wants! Whilst Golden Thramphammer is on the missing persons list at the local cop shop?!!!! [emoji106]

Strawberries going well Acer thrown some leaves out within the day Camellia Dr King budding away nicely Apple tree in blossom and coming along nicely again. Be glad to get everything in to proper borders and out of pots by next year.

Cheeky boy!!! Only 38 this time, hopefully a few more to go at yet! ? I’m not a massive fan of cake and sweet stuff really, but i can defo be swayed with a good wedge of lemon drizzle cake! [emoji6]

A German guy called Helmut approaches a lady of the night in London . "I vish to buy sex viz you." "Okay," says the girl, "I charge £50 an hour." "Ist goot, but I must varn you, I am a little kinky." "No problem," she replies cautiously, "I can do a little kinky for an extra £10." Helmut agrees So off they go the girl's flat, where the German produces four large bedsprings and a duck caller. "I vant zat you tie zese springs to each of your hans und knees." The girl finds this odd, but complies, fastening the springs as requested. "Now you vill get down on your hans und knees." This she duly does, balancing precariously on the springs. "You vill please to blow zis kwacker as I make love to you." She thinks this even odder, but figures it's harmless (and the guy is paying). But the sex is fantastic: honking away on the duck caller, she is bounced all over the room by the energetic German. The climax is the most sensational she has ever experienced, and it's several minutes before she has enough breath to say, "That was totally amazing! What do you call that position?" "Zat," replies the German, "is ze Four-sprung Duck Technique.
