Trouble is I'm not a very caring person!

The teenage boy two doors down who is out on his trampoline multiple times a day, no matter the weather or light levels (sometimes I can just see his head torch going up and down
).I'm not sure if it's just for the exercise, or if it's to help with his mental health, or he's actually some kind of elite athlete using it as part of his training, or he just likes bouncing... I haven't met him or his family, but there's something comforting about looking out of the window and seeing him there, or pottering about in the garden and suddenly hearing the squeaky trampoline springs. It's like, "Oh, he's on the trampoline again. All is right in the world."

The élection result in France. Neither candidate would be my 1st choice, being a bit of a green lefty, but for me, we got the least worse.

I echo what PP says... It's not ideal, but it's the lesser evil I think.
And the small things to be grateful for - a big plate of sausages and mash for tea tonight.
And a cleaner that works hard for her money came to see me today and made my house so nice and fresh

Nothing garden related! I applied for my niece to go on a funded craft course in London. She got through!!! Whoop!!! That's a holiday for 2 in London for the summer... I'm hoping my brother will pay for our accommodation
or at least a little bit ... need to search some accommodation deals now!

Both my boys used a trampoline. They ate their tea on it in the summer

it went to the tip when they went off to Uni. Now aged 23, and now doing his masters the one at home said, I think I might get myself a trampoline for the summer they seem to love it! Such a good exercise.

Do you have high ceilings? I'd be worried about knocking myself senseless. Well, more senseless, obviously! Or is it just a small bounce?
