Claim a bad leg and a family member might come and do it.

Swimmy, That is so true but l am scared of slipping on them. Since l gashed my knee and had to have 14 stitches, l am very wary about doing the same thing again.
I am taking health and safety very seriously these days!

As regards the leaves, maybe consider leaving them be. There will only be more tomorrow. I let them build up until they are nearly all down. Even then, I let some of them lie because they are probably providing a winter home for quite a lot of insect life.
mart, l am surrounded by trees and it is a never ending task. It gets to the point where they are really deep.

Yes, it’s true what you say, once you go off, the feeling of needing to be online diminishes.

Annie, I have four tall green bins to fill for collection on Tuesday so l wanted to get rid of the leaves.
I suppose it was good exercise for me and made it safer to walk.
