Ahhhhh... the shame! We have been planning to build a garden storage shed in this back corner for about two years now. And we even bought the shed itself in a sale about a year and a half ago... and it is currently sitting in our laundry taking up lots of space (even though it is flat-packed).. and also blocking exit from that end of the house. And all our garden tools are also living in the same space... after we had some stuff stolen from our carport.

Anyway, the intent has been there... but the time has not been. And now, my father in law and his visiting brother... both retired... have dropped by and started levelling and clearing the space in preparation for building the shed! Sigh... well, I had meant to do it... but then my wife said that she would do it after I got too busy... and then we both got busy and the shed fell off the list of things to do.

... and retired guys... well, are always looking for projects to do! And so, they offered to finish (well... actually... to start...) the shed! In some ways... I am secretly glad... as they know what the hell they are doing... and we would have been winging it and making stupid noob mistakes all the way... with the likelihood of a functional shed being relatively low at the end of it! This way... we are more likely to have something that actually does what it is supposed to do!

... and our grass got so thick that I had to slash through it with a whipper-snipper! Too thick for the mower to cut through (we have a battery one...), and so thinning it out was necessary before do the proper mowing.

... and this bloody plant in the front. It is a hold over from when the place was crazily overgrown... and so it is has grown thin and tall... which meant that it was not really stable. We had kept tying it up and supporting it... but it would always keep falling over.

Now that it has fallen again, we are not bothering with it anymore. We will let it die and shred it for woodchips. But the annoying thing is that even with it completely on the side... it is still just powering on and not dying! I'm going to have to actually dig the bloody thing out!
