Ahh the joys of creativity upstream, nothing like messing with things that have worked for years.
Bit of tamping down, and you will have a nice little catchment channel that you can still mow over / along and yet encourage surface water to move where you need it.
Hey, good to hear the harness arrived, was the harness size too small, thus the pressure on the sides, or was it just its poor padding and design, did the straps from the front bridge area go back thru the side anchor points, or were they stitched further back outside that area ? the cheap basic xinda harnesses I got for the girls are surprisingly good, and they love hanging in them messing around with carabiners etc.
Been misty rain here for days, last clear day, was out with the eldest climbing, we set up a pulley for a friction saver this time, to make it a bit easier, but I took out my camera from my back pocket, left it on the fence post, and promptly forgot about it, my brain is foggy like the weather. 2 days later, I thought, where is my camera, I thought I left it inside here. Walked past the post getting some firewood and then remembered where I left it.
Several days later after letting it dry a bit, I put it back on charge, as the battery had gone flat, and each day there is more signs of life, tho the buttons either dont work, or stick down and go crazy. Still could be worse.
Feel like I have spent more days going to damn doctors and trips to the city this school holidays than being home, and wearing a groove in the road in the process. Oh just come down for this appointment or that test...........oh, what do you mean it takes 3 hrs to get here, why cant you make an 0815 appointment to talk about the result.....
, sheesh, each trip is around $90 of diesel just for starters.
Anyway, chooks eye is good, area still swollen, but eye fully open, and just clear discharge around it, and its funny watching her getting used to using 2 eyes again.
Too wet and cold to climb today, so Eldest and I are going to strip and service a Model 12 sunbeam mix master so she has her very own mixer, she has been cooking up desserts and cakes these holidays, and were going thru butter like we own a dairy.
, had put aside this mixer for this very purpose, now she is ready to fix it, own it, and use it.
