  • I was out in my garden at the weekend. I describe it as being a sort of tropical, jungle-like... garden, in the UK. The sun was shining, I looked around and said, "Ah, it finally feels like summer."
    So this is a little compilation, if you will, of video footage I got whilst meandering around the garden and being distracted by my dog (who can distract me as much as she likes).
    Thanks for watching.

    Nice to see you're doing all right Skoots, I had been wondering about you, ain't seen you around as much since you got a job. Garden looks great and the co-pilot looks cute. Those koi are amazingly healthy looking as well.

      Thanks, Larp. Yeah, I'm full-time Monday to Friday now + doing any overtime. Just making ends meet and recoving from lack of earnings whilst I was unwell. It's great to feel like my old self again... all be it, a very tired version of my old self. Two weeks off soon, though - so I'll be around a lot more :)

      Thanks for asking. I boil 4 full garlic bulbs in a large saucepan with water until they go soft. Once boiled, I mash them with a potato masher and then pour the contents into a large bucket (about 2 gallons in capacity), top up with water until full, and place a lid on. Leave to cool overnight. When pouring any of the mixture into a sprayer - poor through a fine sieve to remove the particles.
      Spray all over Hosta leaves. Repeat every 2 weeks or so. Seems to do a great job of keeping them off for me.
