Lovely primula candelabra, Martin.

It's amazing what a little retirement can let you do Martin.............

My little pond is now almost hidden by the surrounding vegetation. You can just see a little patch of water with pondweed and a goldfish, bottom left. But the little stream makes a pleasant sound, I can even hear it in the greenhouse.

I finally got around to wiring up the circulation pump to a switch in the shed this morning, a job that's been on the list for 2 years! Not that I ever turn it off, of course.

What are the spider web thingys?

It's an alternative to netting.

Hello again, MrBE, where've you been these last 6 or 7 months?

Popping in on occasion, but lurking rather than posting. Things have been busier than usual.

Bill, that pond's lovely. What are the spider web thingys?

It's a bit choked at the moment. The water mint's a bit of a thug, and I have a great spearwort in a tiny pond. Maybe I should have noted the word "great". At some point it'll have to be removed and replaced with a dwarf spearwort.

Oops, I forgot about the pond.....Cheers Bill....

[Deano's "Diggin It"]

That's the likes VC! But gunna put my own twist to it to keep costs down!

As a tester!

Just run a 4.2m length of "Roofing Lat" across the back wall!

"Perfect"

So now need four good upright's, one either end n two Central! About 5ft above the wall to wipe out the house overshadowing! n clad with the "Lat's"

Hey! I've got this "Licked"

Busy weekend then!

It's on a pump VC! Well! When it's cleaned!

Lateral Japanese fencing BM! If I can get hold of the thick "bamboo" n tie in a few black knot's to make it look "authentic" again! Work in progress!

Would that be Yotsumegaki tied with shuronawa, Deano?
I'm trying desperately to pretend that I know all about Lateral Japanese fencing but all I found was Chapter 34: Defining the Garden: Boundaries and Gates

[Deano's "Diggin It"]

Forgot to put a "Smiley" on

[Deano's "Diggin It"]

Run All that through my head too BM!

We do live on a same "Wave Length"

Just a thought Deano. Is there anyway of making a timber frame that the buckets can fasten to by the handles. If you have them spaced a foot above each other with a hole drilled in the bottom of each, I would imagine you would get 3 or 4 different tones/sounds...........if you don't want the sound, run a length of chain through the holes and let the water run down the chain.
