ALDI – Workzone pressure cleaner

Keen to try out the new toy this morning so setup to clean the driveway. Happy with the results and can report job completed in about 1/3 the time it took with the smaller GMC 1400W.

Ficus plants – potting them

This mornings effort was to setup for re-potting the Ficus fig plants. For each one used a paver for the pot base. The pots themselves are quite heavy - empty - so set them in place first then filled the bottom with pebbles for drainage. Mixed up 50/50 of garden soil and potting mix and filled to the right height, transfer plant and top up over the root ball - done.

Check out these crazy drivers

Heading down Ferntree Gully towards Eastlink overpass with Chesterfield Farm on the left, looked like Indian or Paki driving late model vehicles - WTF.

Pebbles – sick of them

We are done with the front porch area - pebbles be gone!

 

Ruby is back home – RIP

Collected her from the bird vet, she is buried next to Lily (white Pekin).

Her last morning (16/10) before we took her to the vet, did not respond to treatment over the weekend and left with two options, more blood tests but at 7+ years vet suspected cancer so rather than put her through more tests we had her put down on the Monday.
