Another day working on the patio!

Right, Ian, I'm exhausted just thinking about that 2 hours spent clearing away so much builders' rubble etc.! Two points, firstly, please wear sturdier shoes or boots, I shudder at the thought of something heavy landing on your feet, secondly, towards the end of the video there is what looks like a red cable near your left foot ! Please tell me it's NOT a cable. . . . . .videos are very entertaniing ... look forward to the next instalment Is Shirley chicken behaving herself ? Lol ! : o )))

Hi Shirley,

Two points. Lol, firstly, those shoes have velcro fasteners and seeing as I still don't have the dexterity in my fingers to tie laces I'm stuck with them.

Secondly, it was a red cable. Or rather a piece of red cable that the numpties that lived here before us had buried along with all the other rubbish!

Thanks for the vote in favour of my videos, I wasn't sure if people liked watching videos or would rather have photos!

Oh Yes, Shirley chicken is doing fine and is the one who's bottom you can see in the photo! Lol :~)))

LOL - wish I hadn't asked about Shirley chicken now - ok you stick with the Velcro shoes (pun intended) but be very careful. : o )))

Lol Shirley, I've "stuck" with them for years now, they're soooo comfy but I do understand what you mean and I'm grateful for your concern.

I first started wearing them when I was lorry driving (to many years ago) Lol

Videos are a great diversion Ian ... or they would be if mine didn't buffer so much! By the time I've watched it you've made the next one!

I like your videos Ian, it is nice to see the progress you are making in your garden.

Oh dear Fluff, shall I send you each one in advance? Lol

Thanks Mavis, I've got to admit I am enjoying myself with them.
My next trick is producing the music to go with them! ! !

Ian, please think of us mountain rednecks who haven't got magical Broadband yet! We're still on 'dial up' and the snails' pace drives us mad but until the telephone company get their act together then like you with your shoes - we're 'stuck' with it! I love your blogs and would love to see more 'hard copies' so to speak. :o)

I enjoyed your videos Ian, but would prefer them without the "music". It seems to accompany everything on telly these days, often inappropriately, and drives me bonkers.
I think it must be very clever to make them and then transfer them to your computer, thats amazing. Its a really good way to illustrate things. Thank you.

Thank you both.

Oh Nariz, I'm sorry to hear you're still on dial up so for you I will include as many photos as possible in future.

Hi Mad, there's nothing clever about my videos (or rather me! Lol) I use a lot of software to make them look good Lol.
I'd never thought about the music, I guess I've just copied what I see/hear on TV and the 'net! I use it to cover inadvertent sounds/words that may otherwise offend those of a more delicate nature! Lol

You could always download appropriate songs Digger ... such as 'Wiggle it, just a little bit' ... or 'I never promised you a rose garden'! Lol!!

Lol Fluff :~))

I love the videos, Ian, and wouldn't it have been nice if that border really could be dug that quickly....my admiration for you overflows! :~))

Thanks Flori, I wish I could dig that fast. I'd have the garden done in no time! Lol

Wouldn't we all?lol. Totally entertaining, You have really made me chuckle over your blogs my friend. Mr Spielberg, Ian will be stealing your crown before too long at this rate...hahaha :~))

Lol Flori :~)))
I don't think Spielberg has much to worry about .............. YET!

Lol, it's only a matter of time, Ian, I hear he's quaking in his boots already!

Lol :~)))))
