The only problem building gardens in my yard is having to fence EVERYTHING off due to Grunt adding his special brand of "fertilizer" everywhere.
Also had to put tin half way up the walls on the chook pen in a vein attempt to stop him seeing the chooks

And last is my fave toy, picked this up out of the quokka for $150

You'll notice the pull start is missing, couldn't be bothered trying to fix it so the grinder took care of it :wink:

Bit more done in the gardens today but had to go visit a very nice gentleman in the Kalamunda hills this afternoon :wave:
The old tyres form my ute are now mini GB's for the up and coming yellow button squash and even managed to weld and old rim to a star picket for the hose I got this morning (pic's later).

I have been very lucky this year to be able to pick field mushies direct from my raised garden in the yard.
Last year I was given a heap of them from the farm owners kids, they picked them from the paddocks late one arvo and left them down the shed, I being a little :drink: at the time forgot them for around 3 days then found them again....so I crushed them up and threw the whole lot (around 20ish) into the bed....It has certainly paid off as this is about the 6th lot that has come up :D
