HAPPY NEW WEEK and HAPPY NEW MONTH
I hope everyone has a joyful week.
I saw a female turkey in a tree today, the wild woodland species, not a domesticated bird. She was huge and beautiful!
Downright scary Annette! Unbelievable that ANYONE would vote for them or him!

Lindybird: Then the thing to do is for - you perhaps? - to pop over to neighbor lady and say (with big smile): 'My husband is very generous with his time, but frankly he's having a hard time keeping up with our own garden so perhaps the crew that regularly takes care of your gardens could keep the hedge trimmed?' And if she says No? Well, it's her problem because (if it's like here) you aren't legally required to do anything on a neighbor's side of the fence - unless of course it's a tree or something that's a safety hazard and then you have to get the city involved. Anyway, good luck! Nice pix! Was impressed with those highways.
Lynette: Good luck with all the tests. I've seen those all-in-one desktop computers and wondered about the pros and cons, but doesn't sound like your daughter has experienced any of the latter.
LINDA – Your OH should not have rushed into trimming hedge before further discussion. My OH was conned into looking after roses planted on the boundary by a previous neighbour and I’m glad the fence installation forced their removal. Thanks for more travel pics.
RUSTY – Fingers crossed for your health check. Alas, far too many bits & pieces need checks as we age.
OG – I suggest when Dau#2 visits, that you smile sweetly & behave as if nothing happened in past.
Heather-- So sorry to hear that your granddaughter has had a health drama. Good that she got prompt help and is now in the best place. I do hope that things now calm down and you can all exhale with relief. Neighbours can be strange. We have always fallen over backwards to be accommodating, and for instance, we put out our neighbours bins on bin day when they are away, including this lady. Apparently around here, the boundary which is on the left as you stand looking at your property, is your responsibility. So we look after the fence which joins this hedge as it goes into the rear of our houses. On the other hand, some people are cutting their own side of hedges: we cut the hedge on our right hand side (on our side of it) at both the front and rear for instance. I told my OH that now he's done it, he's made a rod for his own back and will now have to continue to cut her side for ever... ...

The famous what? How does someone from outside Wales begin to pronounce that?
Beautiful photo, and I'll confess I love seeing this sort of thing.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
