My apologies for that dianthus. The owls HAVE been up to their tricks again, and I've even managed to squeeze some gardening in, but I havn't had chance to upload the photographs yet.

| The Owls have alerted me to the fact that it has been AGES since I've annoyed daitheplant by messing around with unecessary and over-the-top greenhouse gadgets, instead of actually GROWING anything !
Clearly this must be rectified... but how ?
Some research is required.
|
| Bronwyn has decided to research some basic psychology, to get a feel for what might annoy humans.
|
| .. plus human social interactions, to get a feel for what sort of "peer pressure" might be applied
|
| Meanwhile, Owliver is researching......
...actually, I have NO idea what Owliver is up to here. Although I can't help but note that food seems to be involved ?
|
| Having done the basic research, the Owls must now read up on the highly technical tools required to install and operate their chosen piece of annoying technical gadgetry !
(click on the picture for a larger version).
|
But what IS it ? What have the Owls chosen ? What are the Owls up to ?
Well, all now be revealed. They have actually installed a Synch error.... broadband link down....retyring... please check with your service provider...

My conservatory has had WiFi for over five years, but it kept buffering when the kids started using the old servers, after schools finished for the day, so I got two WiFi boosters, and it mostly behaves quite well, these days. The download speed is about a 1/4 of what they say it should be, though.
Clever owls
Is Bronwyn going to have her own blog? You'd better ask Miss M whether her friend thinks the owls are taking you over the edge.... he he

A blog for Bronwyn ? A sort of.... Blogwyn ? Miss M did indeed come around today, and we had cake and tea in the Polytunnel. She helped me differentiate between Geranium seedlings and weeds, which was most helpful. I've now thrown the geraniums away, and re-potted the weeds. Just kidding Owliver was on his BEST behavior, dressed up in his best bow tie, and helped serve the tea and cakes. Miss M told me a VERY interesting fact. Apparanly Dahlias are related to potatoes ! Perhaps it would be best if we DIDN'T tell Moonlight about that ?

More than the size of a tennis court, but in three pieces and my two veg plots in the larger piece in the back garden. I reckon, two more cuts before I move out.

Bagsy the chocolate French Fancy Roofy, although the carrot (or maybe walnut?) cake looks very nice - did you make it?
