I have spent the last three days lifting grass (well, grass and weeds) from our nature strip by pitchforking it and then hand-sieving and bashing the dirt out of it so I could bag it, then removing some of the soil near the curb and bucketing it up a flight of stairs to the back yard, then shifting 3 cubic metres (about 4 cubic yards) of hoop pine mulch from the driveway to said nature strip, and the front gardens, and shifting (as part of the above) about 3/4 of a cubic metre of 75mm (3") riverstone to all a whole lot of borders and piece-by-piecing them into place, or just shovelling them into a bucket to shift them to some of the garden beds.

I'm sore...but, bloody hell our nature strip and gardens have come up pretty flash!

Cheers,
Marc

No, their nature strips... You'll get naked nature!

Oh wait, nature is naked here too... It's time for those beautiful tender green leaves to show themselves again! I just love spring, especially that time when you'll see the first buds opening and the first tender green in the bushes...

And I'm doing the same as I was doing yesterday (and the day before that, and the two weeks before that...), browsing this forum...

Well, to be honest, I was in bed on my iPod Touch (it's so hard to refresh Safari with a butt-cheek).

Damn kids and their need for learnin'. Send 'em to the coalmines; make 'em earn a crust for themselves, is what I say!

I can't be grounded. I'm starting up a new business, have a ton of chores, and we're deposing the evil developer on the 20th.

Sigh.

I read that as "disposing" and thought you'd finally had enough and offed him, and were waiting for a good day to get rid of the body!

I'm currently enjoying a spicy lentil and tomato soup following a nice walk to the Thames, avoiding being mown down by gazillions of joggers, and walking back to work.

Ricky lives in the caleche fields of Texas, so even a shallow grave requires a backhoe. I would imagine that she'll have to use kerosene and a lot of scrap wood.
