Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

[roydo]

Anyway I noticed the time was 4.34 am when I switched my phone on. After about 10 minutes it suddenly occurred to me that Cal was pronounced dead at 4.30am, which was about the time I woke up suddenly. Coincidence?

No idea, but tons of stuff similar to that happened in the days and weeks after Nik left us.

@jazzy your garden is gorgeous. @Terrarian I reckon all the Insta people have been reading this thread and have seen what a star Daisy is! Seriously though, don't blame your caution.

Thanks Anje.

When we moved in it was just a field with loads of rubbish and about 15 mature trees.

We filled 10 skips in the first month just to get rid of the rubbish.

It's a big plot about 2 acres in total.

We have developed it piecemeal when funds and time have allowed , much more so since we both retired.

In the back there are 5 "rooms"

1. Mediterranean garden - dry garden raised and with excellent drainage .

2. Japanese / Asian courtyard with water feature and planted with acers , camelia , cherry , viburnum and magnolia.

3. Main garden with lawn and borders of pittosporums , rhododendrons , azaleas and geraniums

4. Large pond and bog garden with lawn and herbaceous border

5 Newly planted arboretum leading to the animal enclosure.

It's a lot of hard work but does look good when in bloom.

That look like somebody's finger being dunked in the egg?

The view as you turn the corner into my road. I live off to the left at the bottom. The field you can see usually has dairy cows in it in the summer

It has been mate and the same is forecast over the weekend too so I'll be getting out for a couple more walks. As you know the air is so clean down here and the light is unreal so when you do get a sunny day like this it does look so sparkling.

Ha ha. Just seen the cricket score.

At least we know there's a worse sporting team than Everton. lol

Happy Birthday Brian. Didn't realise you were that old although you've probably told me. Sounds like you had a good one.

Cheers mate, I look younger and act if I’m still 35, it’s just a number

Just got another one off a store called minitiger want to send free merch for Daisy to post on instagram, where have all these come from all of a sudden lol

Doing some research to see if they're scams

A long time coming T man but you have finally made it to the big leagues. Yes as Daisy’s Agent of course but you get to reflect in her glory and fame ?

Afternoon all, hope you are all well and enjoying another day of stunning Spring weather. Had a trip into town this morning and went for a coffee in the Cathedral Precincts, so peaceful there, hard to imagine you are just a few feet away from the city centre. Not a bad view either.View attachment 160064

Beautiful cathedral. I love this pic of our one on St Patrick’s night. I went to school right next to it ?

There is something inherently peaceful about gazing out onto water. Looks beautiful.
