I have a few narrow raised beds but the rest is lawn and brick paving. I cut down the size of the borders a lot a few years back to save us some work.
We are off to bed now so I will see you tomorrow. Nite nite sleep well :-D <3

We had one at the bottom of the garden, a compost bin that is but got rid of it because we mostly have lawn now so don't need one.

LaGooner

LaGooner Report 3 Sep 2021 23:40

I used to make it but the compost bin got broken and I have not got another one sorted

ZZzzz

ZZzzz Report 3 Sep 2021 23:37

Just what my Dad used to do :-)

LaGooner

LaGooner Report 3 Sep 2021 23:30

I just leave it as it is nowhere near the house or any neighbours and if I wait long enough I will have some good compost ;-) :-D :-D :-D

Have you tried sprinkling talcum powder in it, that kills most smells for a while.

LaGooner

LaGooner Report 3 Sep 2021 23:20

Our bin is really smelly but it is tucked away at the back of the garden to fester in peace :-D :-D :-D

ZZzzz

ZZzzz Report 3 Sep 2021 23:04

Night night YG sleep well.

ZZzzz Report 3 Sep 2021 23:03

We did have to pressure wash the bin when it was emptied, we usually just rinse it.

LaGooner Report 3 Sep 2021 22:58

I was disappointed as I thought they would be coming on 16th, but hey ho! I will just have to do another run to the tip if needs be as the gardener will be cutting the hedges so there will plenty to put in the bin. At least the bin will be emptied before he comes again at the beginning of October.

Where has the year disappeared to?

I am off to bed now, LG. Sleep well :-) <3

ZZzzz Report 3 Sep 2021 22:53

We were lucky, our green bins were only suspended for about a month or two.

LaGooner

LaGooner Report 3 Sep 2021 22:40

Lucky you our bins are still suspended though I have not looked for an update yet.

YG Report 3 Sep 2021 22:33

Oooh, a bit of sunshine on Sunday until wind and rain spreads in later!! Just in time for the gardener on Monday :-0 :-0

I had a letter from the council today advising the date of the first green bin collection that starts again next week: 30th September!!

LaGooner Report 3 Sep 2021 21:59

It is supposed to be warmer next week .
I have not done colouring for a while but I will have to give it a rest as I have a birthday card to make for my stepson and my sister in law

ZZzzz

ZZzzz Report 3 Sep 2021 21:53

Now that's something I haven't done for a while, colouring in.
We went out to take 2 full wheelie bin bags full of clothes that are to small, not that I've put weight on you understand.

YG Report 3 Sep 2021 21:50

There's not going to be any next week either! I think I will hibernate as the heating is back on again already!

Evening YG, it is the first bit of sun here for a good few days.
