Latest moan from you and me 2026
Just looking at a weather app and adverts for a free online ADHD test. Hardly makes you wonder why the epidemic is getting out of hand.

Greenhouse - Goodbye Old Friend, Hello New
Looking great. If you can I would opt for a ramp, so you can wheel things in and out. A wheelbarrow will cope with quite a significant step but a sack barrow or pot shifter is best with a ramp.

I saw a blackbird while walking. It landed a half a meter in front of me on a stone wall. It’s the first time since 2024 that I saw one again.
