Eric has been very industrious

Chestnut tree and double decker guard

Walnut tree

Hi Folks,
Today we pottered along. Susan planted a walnut and chestnut tree out in the sheep paddocks. This involved constructing two tree guards. The results are in the pictures and they look excellent. My contribution was belting the star pickets in with the monster sledge hammer and keeping my "sage" advice to myself.
I scraped the damaged paint from the carport poles and repainted  them. I also recoated the frame for the water heater surround. A quick trip into Sheffield followed to buy a battery, sour cream for tea and to visit the hole in the wall money machine.
I have moved the mousetrap from the camper trailer to inside the house. It sits baited ready to despatch any of Hydro's (the cat) presents that have escaped.
Susan knocked up a pumpkin soup for entree for tea.
Another glorious balmy autumn day today. However the forecast for the rest of the easter weekend is not overly cheery. However the weather here is so variable and localised who knows what will happen!

Night folks

Simon
