Re: Compulsory registration for all keepers of birds in the UKSo, as I thought, now they have put the tick in the box: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-measures-to-help-protect-poultry-industry-from-bird-flu#:~:text=Bird%20keepers%20will%20need%20to,deadline%20on%201%20October%202024 I quote: "Bird keepers will need to provide information, including thei...
Re: What are you listening to? Just watched your link Trev, different to say the least, but not my cup of tea. I prefer Chopin, Beethoven, Tchiakowsky, etc. I agree they will not be to everyone's taste but watching them in concert is breathtaking. Tonight as I type this I am listening to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lB8F852q...
Re: GoatsGoat milking stand completed today and it works It is also level, I have glued some roofing felt to the top surface to help prevent any of them slipping now we just have to persuade the goats to go on it.
And I thought building the stand would be the hardest part!
Re: GoatsThey are, but more importantly they are easier for an older guy like me to manage!
Re: What are you listening to?I have been listening to this group for years and have just watched one of their earlier concerts. Not a group for everyone but the sound they produce is basic and raw. I put the headphones on, raise the volume and get lost in it. I suppose that is what old guys like me just do :-D I present...........
Re: GoatsAdded to our small herd today, we collected two mini Hollandi goat mothers with their four kids. The kids are actually smaller than our cats at present. They are very nervous at present having had little human contact and will be quarantined for a month before being introduced to our other goats. Fi...
Re: Trev62-An intermittent gardening blog! I miss growing Jerusalem artichokes - they made excellent "chips" when sliced and deep fried. They grew well in less than ideal soil on the allotment but were prone to slug damage which is why they needed to be harvested as soon as the plants died back. That is how we like them as well. I did not r...
Re: Learning Guitar Takes me a while to get from sight reading (guessing really) to concert ready, but I'm usually there or nearly. 4 concerts a year and a hard one coming up in March. Monteverdi's Vespers - 8 parts + soloists, so even knowing what line I'm supposed to be on needs work. Well Mo, are you concert ready ...
Re: Trev62-An intermittent gardening blog!Tackled the Jerusalem artichokes, due to them not being cut back and harvested most had rotted but the survivors have been repositioned and now have a lovely new home to grow in. Fingers crossed they multiply during the year. Trimmed back the remaining herbs and cleared another area to plant some mo...
Re: Getting back to painting & drawingNice drawing, very impressive considering you are just finding your feet again doing artwork. Hope your friend is happy with it.
Re: Trev62-An intermittent gardening blog!Goji berries and blueberries had to wait today, instead I moved some hedging plants then replaced them with new buckthorn rootings /stems that had spread from our original plants. Never realized how buckthorn grew and propagated so the extras are a bonus and the spikes will make a good deterrent in ...
Re: Painting/waterproofing Breeze blocksFinally finished sorting the breeze blocks today, applied a couple of coats of PVA glue then a couple of masonry paint. Looks tidier but may need to add some "graffiti" to break the solid wall colour up a bit. See how I feel after looking at it for a few days.
Re: Trev62-An intermittent gardening blog! you have been busy - sounds like you'll have a lovely fruit harvest this year )t' One hopes so!! Today I rescued the blackberry plants we put in. I could only find three survivors and a may/may not survive twig. Still we shall see how they go...... Also cleared around all the bases of the fruit tre...
Re: Trev62-An intermittent gardening blog!So tayberries and black raspberries sorted but still have the frames to make for them. Strawberry beds extended, plants separated and both beds now fully planted up. Rhubarb uncovered, most seems to have survived the winter. Now on with clearing all the debris from around the fruit trees a few days ...
