The Problem. My hair was growing out of control, it was taking too long to dry, I could do a thing with it and it was in Autumn / Winter camo. The solution. Go to Amazon and order a hair trimmer. Pictures and 4K video as appropriate and hoover up the detritus. Going to give it a 3.75/5. Good first effort #YMMV.

Garden – April 2020

05/04/2020 Leave a comment

March was a funny month as I’m sure you all can guess. So with the fence being mostly down and the Corona Virus, nothing much happened. However the fence is now back up, I have 13 seed potatoes (Red Duck of York) planted in various bags and containers. However, I’m now out of compost and I can’t just pop out to get some. The Summer Onions are coming on well and I’ve planted some maincrop sets to replace those that failed. On the indoor front. I have planted, White an Red Spring Onions, Lemon Basil and Garden Mint. Oh and I think we are having a drought. 2020 is turning out to be one hell of a year.

The End Of Sport

There is only so much software you can reinstall before you need an emergency beano. Emergency being the term of the day as most Football and the Wales v Scotland game were cancelled. Lot’s of Kilts in Penarth. Good Beano though.

Best On Your Own

You get to an age and birthdays just become an excuse, an excuse to do what you want ans with me it’s to Beano. Born in Newport, Beano in Newport and to make it perfect, it rained.

Yeasty Wednesday

When there is a new pump coming on and you wait for it, then you see all the Yeast and you realise that the cask should have rested for longer, well it was that sort of day. Getting lighter in the mornings and the nights are drawing out. Still lots of February rain though. Still it was an Emergency Beano and it did me well.

Garden – February 2020

23/02/2020 Leave a comment

February 2020 is going down as the worst weather since the double Beast from The East in March 2018. First of all Storm Ciara blew my fence down and Storm Dennis and the ongoing bad weather is stopping it being put back up again. So the garden hasn’t been dug and with all this rain it wouldn’t be. The only real growth is Onions, Summer Onions outside and Spring Onions indoors. I have Potatoes chitting and with a bit of luck, they will go in their bags and pots late March 2020.
