britainswomble Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Finding out tonight that we still have "Our" hedgehogs in the garden, two weeks after they arrived. We see them occasionally, usually about 9pm. We have a mum and two babies that were still feeding off her when we saw them together. The babies are often left alone and call mum with a high pitched whistle. We also saw her carry one of the babies across the lawn by the scruff of its neck. They don't seem at all bothered by ours or our nine cats presence and carry on as if we weren't there. They are doing a great job in the garden. We used to be over run with slugs and snails, but now only see a few. Isn't nature wonderful. We have wet summers and slugs and snails flourish. more slugs and snails means more hedgehogs surviving. Nature compensating again. Heavy showers are predicted for tomorrow, so if we get the rain we've been promised, then the hedgehogs will have a banquet tomorrow evening, bless 'em.

britainswomble Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Bought a second hand Mitsubishi 2.2 Kva generator for a hundred quid. The owner bought it (New) for a carpentry job in March, put five litres of petrol in it while he was doing the job and hasn't used all the petrol yet. It's still under guarantee too. I've bought it to use when restoring my Albion, as there is no access to power where it will be kept. I've now got my motor home back on the road after seven years, and the Albion is next on the list. Buying a generator has overcome one of the biggest problems I had in starting it. I had a 5 Kva one a few years ago, but sold that to my bosses in a moment of stupidity, thinking I'd never have any use for it. Oh well at least I now have one that will run lights, grinders and my Mig welder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leakeyvale Posted September 5, 2008 Author Share Posted September 5, 2008 Eating mulberries! None at all last year and this year it is a case of trying to beat the weather. Short grass means I can shake the tree and then dash to find the fruits. What I really need is a very tall man with long arms... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
