While I'm rearranging the furniture

Gorram Limeys! We're not shooting friggin peasants in Piccadilly. Some one shut their yaps while we still have scalps.
DeleteMake sure you pick them all up before mowing the lawn!, Tony
ReplyDeleteI just did this section but it's pretty rugged in behind there so the blade is set high. Anyone whose head is below the top of the grass shouox be safe should I miss one.
DeleteExcellent picture, very atmospheric, hope there will be no giant ants!
ReplyDeleteThere is a toad who hangs out around here. He would be pretty scary if you were only 54mm tall.
DeleteOuch!
DeleteHurrah for toys in the garden!

ReplyDeleteI was looking at the tall grass and thinking about your patches of woods. I'd need to lower the blade and make another pass before I could actually play. A flatter area might be better though.
DeleteGood fun - it is a measure of my OCD that I felt a pang of anxiety - hoping that you had counted them all carefully before and after. Oooh - nurse - the screens...
ReplyDeleteIt's good that the Brits wear sensible clothes so they can see each other clearly in the tricky conditions. Those native chappies aren't playing cricket at all.
No worries, I ordered the nco's to do a rollcall.
DeleteI'm sure who has the advantage spotting eise, those feathers are pretty bright.
Ah- yes, nothing so good as the Great Outdoors for 54mm...epic!
