I'm sorry: the Gimp was open and the images were just right there in front of me... #Trump #Epstein #captcha #signature

Amazingly, despite the Arctic weather conditions last week, the calendula at Parkway station is still blooming away in the platform planters. #CommunityRail #Gardening

Just cleaning a donated #bicycle prior to checking it over ready for reuse. This one was in a shelter but under some large trees. I think I bought quite a lot of tree home with it!

So much for the weather forecast I saw yesterday that indicated the snow wasn't coming this far south. #uksnow 7/10

I thought my University advert at the local railway station looked a bit shabby, but on closer inspection it's been designed to look "distressed". Weird.

Today I finally shifted the #greenhouse frame off the area where it is destined to be installed so that I could weed and level the area. I remember now why I do mostly #NoDig #gardening - digging over that space to get out all the weed roots was hard work […] [Original post on mastodon.online]
The bare soil levelled out. The long yellow spirit level is just visible on the pile of slabs to the left hand side.Weed suppression fabric and 15 paving slabs weighing the bed down.

What's that? Jon has spent a couple of hours gathering up about a cubic metre of leaves from the footways outside the #allotment site to fill his 2026 season leaf mould bin?Shocking! 😲🍁🍂🍃 I suspect even some of the other plot holders on site think I'm a […] [Original post on mastodon.online]

The calendula that I left to flower in the station planters is looking good still, so that appears to have been the correct choice. #CommunityRail #gardening

A wet, cool #Autumn evening, so the perfect time to have the maslin pan bubbling away with the initial ingredients for apple & sultana #chutney. Should end up with about 8lbs (it's an old, pre-metric handwritten recipe!).
Maslin pan on the hob with apples, carrots, onions, garlic and mustard seeds simmering in a pint of malt vinegar.

Is it just me, or is the rear bracing support of Loughborough railway station's footbridge a bit, um, "wonky"? Only just noticed it.

One of my neighbours gave me some spare oatmeal woodstain that she was going to throw away because she wasn't sure if it was still any good. I said I'd try it on my workshop as that was in desperate need of painting. My friend Gina tells me that "shabby […] [Original post on mastodon.online]

Hmm, well cleaning the bathroom yesterday seems to have met with the approval of the local giant spiders.

It's a lovely wet Bank Holiday Saturday so I'm doing the traditional thing of trying to make my bathroom fit for human habitation again. First person to say "you missed a bit" wins the star prize of cleaning it themselves for the next decade.
