Harry Potter and the Onion Garden

Well a big weekend in the garden again. I was a bit knackered after yesterday so I wasn't quite as productive today. I got plenty done however.

a quick pictorial post tonight.

I mulched another enormous pile of bits before the mulcher ran out of steam. I think I'll have to invest in new blades finally. These ones are badlt notched now and I fear they might be beyond my ability to resurect them with the diamond stones.

A final note. I just saw the new Harry Potter movie. Either I was quite tired or I'm losing tolerance for even vaguely decent movies. Was struggling to stay awak at some points. The effects were good but frankly not wildly inspiring. I prefered the yurt-dwelling mongolian sheep herders the other night. I'm not saying it was bad, quite the contrary. It just seemed...I guess the closest I can get is...'redundant'...perhaps the most fascinating aspect was seeing the actors a year older. A bit like time lapse photography.

Drop the zero and get with the hero. Go the Transformers, now that was good and worth seeing again on the big screen.

When you get your stable of girls you may need a new nick name. Something along the pimp lines??

Good job on the saplings. The yard looks heaps bigger and there's room for the hammock now.

You'll be able to swing in your hammock reading poetry aloud to the girls.
