  1. *Stormforce~beka* Yep, full wets on, but finished before the latest shower arrived. Then the same on the other side. 35 done in total.
  2. Dorsetbred Looks like it's clearing out the back, so heading back out. The yews have been shipped already and arrive in half an hour apparently.
  3. Here's the rain again. 15 holes dug, 17 to go, but the radar suggests it's setting in for a while.
  4. jy Ah right. Nice one. Ta. These were £3.09ea for 20-30cm English Yew. Not going to complain at that price, compared to garden centres.
  5. @jy I had switched from the Hyundai to your Cobra, as the similar Cobra was 30 quid cheaper, but last minute, Robert Dyas reduced their price by £35, so went with the Hyundai. Plus it was in stock. It's 21", self propelled c/w a rear roller. Will hopefully be able to fire it up tomorrow. Thanks for all the advice. Much appreciated.
  6. *Stormforce~beka* Great work on the buddleia though. And the daffs look good. Yep, back to rain and cloud now. Was hoping to take my new set of wheels for a spin this evening, but looks like the approaching rain will scupper it.
  7. Dorsetbred Just living in the moment. Don't like the look of the heavier stuff off NW France. Looks like more than the apps were forecasting this morning, for later on.
  8. Just ordered 36 small English Yew bare root plants, as we're getting a bit close to the end of planting season. All for what will hopefully be two low clipped square hedges.
  9. *Stormforce~beka* Don't worry, there'll be plenty of bee friendly flowers going in, in their place. That's part of what we're trying to do.
  10. Dorsetbred Just been out to check for you and I can confirm that the dandelions are blackening nicely... Thanks all.
  11. Another cloudfest. Feels pretty cool too. Should be back in boots across the fields tomorrow. Then more rain, so possibly a one-off before the wellies return.
  12. Thought I was getting a day off today, but arrived at Mum's to be told that I needed to get on her flat root to fix the guttering and clean her uPVC cladding. Weather was much nicer down there. Bit of Sun and warmth at various points.
  13. Cloudy and murky this morning. Off down Fawley way for MD, in a bit. Only had an hour, so I've applied some weed and feed to the grass this morning. I'll whisper it quietly, but now need a bit of rain for it to do its thing. Day off tomorrow, so back filling the sleepers will be the order of the day.
  14. *Stormforce~beka* I'm not. I'm done. Listening to the Rugby outside, with a pint. I'd go in and watch it, if I could stand up.
