Monday Morning - 7th February 2022
There has been lots and lots of rain !!
Here are Two Photos
Cleared off the back drain
There are Before and After shots
Thursday 24th February 2022
THE GARDEN ALONG THE PATH
As you know, the branches were starting to take over the path once again
So I decided to get off my skinny-arse and do something
Gave it a cut back today
Only did along the path and did not cut anything off the height
There are Two Photos below
As you can see, it was a short haircut and this was done on purpose
It all grows so damn fast
AND ... now the smaller plants along the front will get some sunlight ... and grow !!
(( PS for Coudrey ... one less job for you to have to do on your Three Day Weekend !! ))
(( PS for Brett ... where is the bloody rain ?? ))
Just as a matter of interest
With the first photo I tried to show the height ... and the second shows the edge
Brett
Yep, thanks
All looks good !!
Friday 25th February 2022
Note from Geoff

Wednesday 2nd March 2022
THE FOOTPATH TREE
Two Photos Below
I wonder what caused it ...
?? - human or dog piss
?? - booze
?? - poison
Do you reckon it's time to cut it off completely at ground level ??
Brett
Yeh, it's dead
Just pull it out of the ground ... "RIP"
Geoff
THE TREE IS GONE !!
Saturday 5th March 2022
Note from Sharon to Brett
All those little palms in the drain area
Nearly got them all !!
But it’s raining now !!
Brett
Thanks, Mum ... Well Done !!
Thursday 10th March 2022
Note from Geoff
As arranged, the Lawnmowers are coming today
There is a Sixteen Seconds Video HERE
Shows the drain ... and it's a bit of a mess !!
Sharon spent ages pulling out the little palms the other day
But she did not touch the nut grass or other weeds
( see the post and photo above )
Will see what it's like after today's haircut
And keep an eye on the area and see how long it takes to all shoot again
Then, as talked about, we'll head off to Bunnings and get the Ryobi Whipper Snipper if needed !!
Brett
Okay, sounds good ... and thanks, Mum
It will be fine after a mow
Save your money
Geoff
12.15pm ... Lawnmowers have just turned up
Geoff
12.45pm ... and The Lawnmowers are working on the other units now
As you can see in the photo below, every weed has gone !!
Will wait now and see how long before they come back
If there is no rain tonight, I'll be putting the sprinklers on tomorrow
Brett
Looks great !!
Sharon
I’ll be looking for those little suckers
They won’t get by me !!
Sharon
7.55pm Thursday
Really nice perfect rain at Trinity Beach
Just what "Number 32" needed after the lawn mowing
Monday 14th March 2022
It Absolutely Poured Down All Weekend And Today !!
Tuesday 15th March 2022
THE SIDE DRAIN
There is a Fourty Four Seconds Video HERE
Look at all the shit that is washing in from under the Fence !!
Unbelievable !!
I spend a lot of time keeping the top of the drain clear so the water can get away as quickly as possible
Clean up when the rain / water stops
Brett
Lucky we got the drain put in
Saving a lot of heartache, I think
Friday 18th March 2022
Note from Geoff to Brett
Friday Morning

Yesterday I cleaned / picked up all the rubbish from the "Under The Fence Flood" the other day
I bet there is another load there now !!
Brett
Yep, there will be !!
Geoff

Note from Geoff to Brett ... Gutters
Brett ... HERE is a Twenty Eight Seconds Video I took just after I rang you about 1.20pm Monday
It really looks like the downpipes are blocked and the gutters are overflowing !!
Are you able to beg / borrow / steal a step ladder so Sharon and I can look and clean them out over the Easter Weekend ??
Don't want water coming in through the ceilings !!
Sharon
Hmm - I look forward to that !!
Get me gloves too if you remember !!
Geoff
Your Mother has got gloves !!
I really think the gutters need ""A Good Look""
Brett
Okay ... I'll try to get one
Saturday 16th April 2022
Note from Geoff to Brett
THE GUTTERS
Got up on the fence
Two Photos ... not as bad as what I thought !!
The first shot is looking from the fence to the end of the building
There is a bit of junk in there, and I would like to clean it out
Especially around the two downpipes
The second is looking from the fence down to Unit One
Almost As Clean As A Whistle !!
One day I'll need a ladder for a little while
Brett
Okay

Downpipes and Gutter at rear of Unit Four

The first part shows the Two Downpipes at the rear of Unit Four
The second shows the downpipe at the end of the building
And the third bit shows the pipe near the back door
The gutter is no where near as bad as the front was
BUT -- there are leaves blocking both of the downpipes as you can see

So Miss Coudrey has a bit more Ladder-and-Gutter Work to do !!
And I will be her "Empty The Bucket Boy" !!
