Inclemant weather

So much rain again . Water butt full so thats great. Noticed both lawns very green but in need of a trim but they will have to waite until they dry out before we can use the electric mower on them. May get the local gardener to do them this time he has a petrol mower. Glad i used the feed and weed , and will get some more soon. Still got the odd dandelion but my granpa weeder has taken them out. As you are aware its a constant battle against nature to maintain a tidy lawn but i feel some times its a loosing battle. I nearley reached that stage until members introduced me to Weed and Feed and of course my Granpa weeder but now i am always at the ready for uninvited growths. Would be nice if we could get some dry weather though as i have work to do in my shed which needs electric and i don,t have a fixed supplie. Any way hope everyone is ok and its good gardening from me to you all. Take care Tony

Lovely pics Tony, just relax for a while , our weather is more than inclement but I`m too polite to say, you know what I mean. Had a lovely outing to grandsons school for a concert, his first ever public appearance playing piano, it was great but we got trapped in the school for a while due to playground flooding, there won`t be a dry schoolchild in our town today as its still stairrodding it down........

I was thinking of you today Tony - I had radio 2 on and someone called Tony who had a budgie sent a message in - was that you? Around 10.00 this morning I think!

Oh dear! you must be getting the weather we had yesterday! It never stopped raining all day, I was joking on another Goy'ers blog that I was going to just grow rice 'cause the garden was like a paddy field! I might not be joking anymore!! Today is really cold too, it feels like September! That's good that your lawn is getting better and better, you'll soon have it so lovely you'll be able to use it as a bowling green! Or a croquet lawn! I'll get started on the coat hangers to make the hoops! Lol! ;0)

Hi Elizabeth Its that wet here even the ducks go around in boats. No chance of finding the treasure now(LoL). Never seen so many wellington boots on people like i have today. Both my gnomes (Pinkie and Perky ) have sunk into the ground its a tragedy. Wish you good luck with the Rice. Take care enjoy Tony

Hi stickitoffee Afraid it was nt me on radio 2. I tune all my radio,s to 100.4 Fm Smooth radio, it can be a bit mushy at times but i hold my hands up i am a bit mushy myself. At 10 am today i was trying to win a disagreement with Tiny, i should have known i would loose. Take care enjoy hope the weather near you is fine. Tony
