    Garden looks just gorgeous. It sure did rain lol. You’re doing a great job. ❤ you’re a nice man Marc for helping that older man. Pat on the back for you. I think the weather is a biggish deal as you get older. No idea why. In my case I need to know how hot it’s going to be so I can dress appropriately. lol. I like the rain but I hate the wind. Very destructive. Have a lovely day. ❤

    I live in the middle of US and last year, our Mighty Mississippi River was extremely low due to drought along with the Missouri River. It was distressing to see. We too are having constant rain, severe storms and tornadoes, not as bad as Oklahoma. It is frustrating for lawn work. Out rivers are flooding. But we need the water so just bearing through it.

    Here in the UK I saw the doctor and needed to see a lung specialist this was October 2023 and only have an appointment for May 2024. That is how fast it is. We too are getting a lot of rain, then cold weather then hot then cold and rain again. Has been a very long Winter here in the UK only today (9/5/2024) and yesterday (8/5/2024) Cambridgeshire has been descent weather. Marc have a lovely day. I agree about the food control .

    The rain up here in Brittany has delayed so many of my jobs in the garden. I am about 2 weeks behind!!! So frustrating!!!

    More than anything else, the old clip shows just how much your camerawork has improved. Really top class. Well done, monsieur.

    For some life can be very hard so we have to count our blessings...

    Hi Marc, we have had so much rain in my neck of the woods, it's hard to believe that summer will ever be here, however alot of people in other countries have got it far worse so must be grateful for at least the greenery and not a drought.

    The soil can be sandy in your area in the south west, so give Lavender a try which is low maintanance.

    My daughter lives in Barcelona….the drought is catastrophic. Yes, we have to remind ourselves to keep things in perspective. New plantings looking great 👍

    My referral to a specialist in the Uk was made last November and came through today for June. So May to July is not bad. We very had huge amounts of rain too…. But as you say others have it a lot worse. The garden is looking great.

    I am admiring your tall grass, Marc, I bet that is an exercise in restraint.......

    Your right Mark, l cannot do what l used to do but can do stuff slower still when others cant. Yes we are paying now for mankinds, goverments lack of love for our planet in the past.

    Good evening, from a warm UK. Your right about stepping back and looking at others we can always find people worse off, but we soon slip back to our own little world and troubles. That new boarder is really coming along nice, and the lazy laying down tree looks good ( well I think so) . You certainly get the wild lifemin your garden, if you start to get hares, I'm going to be very envious. Take care I beleave it's warming and drying up for awhile now. Love from UK ❤

    Hi ya Marc, agree with the weather, it’s been real hard, rain rain and more rain, grass growing and much too wet to try and mow, got my plants sorted so that’s out of the way. I agree with you on the terrible devastation these hurricanes have done to all those peoples lives. Yes I’m not a fit person but I do my jobs slowly and limited times, but I get it done, so I’m grateful I can still do smaller things slower. You are doing a great job on that flower patch looks really great, glad you had a trip out and found that garden centre, also good you helped your client out with his wheel, thank you for your kindness. Question Marc, I got 2 comfrey plants last year and they are doing great, not the ones that spread, I done the nettles and comfrey leaves in bucket, I know you said for a month it’s covered, is it for feed and what quantities do I put in my watering can. Great video keep up all what you do. Take care♥️

      I normally dilute one litre of mixture in to a watering can. It's not super scientific but it works :-)
