This is my back garden.


The only thing is that little beauty I posted can do it
Why not just rake/fork those leaves into the soil where they will do some good? or just leave them to decompose naturally?

Therein lies the story of my brief affair with gardening
As a kid, I did something similar but running - so the stick got me with considerable force in a very sensitive area of the male anatomy.

I staggered inside moaning "stick, stick" when asked what was wrong.
Mother thought I said "snake, snake" - and all hell broke loose.

That sounds like an arm with a hand at the end.

That would have been the perfect xmas present for the pommy pensioner who lived down our street. He had one big tree on the nature strip in front of his house. Because he hated raking up the leaves he asked the shire to cut down the tree. They refused of course, so he ring barked the tree.
Of course he denied that it was him who did it.
On second thought, had he received a blower as a gift, he'd been whingeing about having to buy fuel to run it.

She wouldn't be too charmed if I described her soft ,feminine hands as claws
