              Yes. :blue thumb: Cleared all the leaves, mowed the lawns (at Christmas), dug the veggie garden and composted, pruned shrubs, cut back plants, built a new ShineyFrame, removed another eleven conifers and prepped the bed with compost and horse poo and a few other jobs.

                              Been outside to top the birds up. Dropped one feeder - seed everywhere but they will soon hoover it up. It didn't take the robin long to fly down. Must be hungry in this weather.
