2023 - What I did today

A great feeling of achievement was felt by I.

Started off attacking the jungle of nettles,blackberries etc which had invaded my flower beds at home. After much pruning and hacking away I finally made a semblence of respectability to the left side borders. (the right side will have to wait until another day)  After cleaning up, holding the nettles at arms length and dumping them out od sight at top of garden it was time to cut the lawn. The lawnmower made short work of the few weeds which were left on it and the grass cuttings were used around my willow tree at the top of the garden to try and keep thhe area moist.

I then raised the height of the cutter to its highest,removed the box, and ploughed into my wild area of grass which I purposely leave for wildlife and sometimes wild flowers. It becomes a fire hazzard at thsi time of year so gets its annual cut ,allowing the cuttinngs to fly and seed itself.

Of course I then had to lower the blades again, put the box back on, and create a nice neat curved edge to the longer grass.

Time for Kato's second walk now so Mosgow!
