Looks like your garden flowers are also doing very well, super photos Eric. We have just picked our first hand-full of runner beans. I have been hand pollenating with an art paint brush and it works!  No bees and very few insects apart from some black fly.

Well I couldn’t think of anyone more adept at using an art brush, to take over bee duties. My only regret is you wouldn’t be able to take on national coverage. :-)

You have actually stumped her …as she doesn’t know that one. She said to say “thank you”.

You obviously had to venture deep into the jungle to find that one. ;-)

New addition to the garden!

Jan quickly adds “TEMPORARY”.

Had a break from photography and general laying about to fit 2 new toilets [Actually it was a hat trick, because I modified the caravan toilet as well, so 3 toilets sorted] 

No one seems to want them for unusual garden plant holders (including the wife) so my next job will be smashing them up for the bin….what a waste.:needsahug:

So they sit in this quiet corner of the garden awaiting their fate.

Put them on Ebay or donate them to local reclamation yard?   Block the outlets and sink them in the ground to make a water feature?

The local recycling centre want £5 a piece to drop them off!! No wonder people fly tip.

No takers on Market place but haven’t tried eBay. I am afraid I tire of getting rid of things on the internet…too many time wasters.

Our garden is to open in character for them to work here.  Needs a small cottage garden style place.
