    Bill Oddie doesn't think they work but that doesn't stop him having 2 pseudo-herons and an artificial menagerie Bill Oddie talks about pond life
    I guess BM feels the same way about his pseudo aviary - maybe he is Bill Oddie .

      Well he would have to be Little Mally wouldn't he?

      This makes me wonder if there are any really famous people on here, maybe Prince Charles, or the Pope?

          Not necessarily. Big Mally could be his alter ego!

            They fall for it? Guess those herons aren't the sharpest tools in the box! But, if it works, and nothing gets hurt... Great stuff.

                I've got a little problem. I'm assuming due to the chasing....... that's going on, 3 fish tried committing harry carry & I found them in a tiny eddy in the stream..........they must have "jumped" onto the overflow pipe.....................I've now put a net in the stream on the end of the overflow pipe...............idiots.

                  Well I finally made a start on mine yesterday!

                  Dug out the pump, fished out the fish, re-homed in Daughter n SIL,s nice shiny new pond, with help of a little pair of hands!



                  Her "Little Face" was an absolute picture!



                  But did "Cack it"a little when the "Big Boys" came out!



                  Time to "Don the Wellie's"

                    What fish are they Deano? They're the size of Whales

                    Comment


                    • A couple of "Ghost Coi" "Golden Orf" n a few "Odd's n sod's" but surprised they didn't come out with sunglasses on they've been in my "Pea soup" like pond for that long,

                      Won't bore you of the reasons, but hey! It's a start, were up n running! Oh! And here she is talking to "Fred the Frog"

                      • Willing to show the "Bare Bones"

                        "Back Yard" now look's like a "Dump"

                        But pond now more or less emptied!





                        Really glad it's my weekend off, may put a major "Dent" in it!

                        Then playing about! Sure I could make this work!

                        A water feature taking water from one level to another!



                        One bucket over spilling to another!

                        Summat to sleep on!

                        • It will work Deano but the buckets will all have to face slightly forward.

                              How you going to get the water to the top bucket ?
                              Pump - mains or solar?
