    Underoos and Mates 2012 January....

    Evening Undies,
    Wow, it has been really happening here the last couple of days... while I was in Wingello digging holes with a mattock to plant some plants.

    Finished the first little "contemplation glade," with Mr Rags chain sawing a couple of flat spots on the big fallen tree for people to plant their bums and contemplate nature and the universe, and the leeches.


    HAPPY NEW YEAR MISSY


    Am listening to the funky music as I type this. Thanks Undies.


    Happs, in laws can be real pains in the bum. (Why I don't do the Christmas lunch thing). But I agree with your FIL meeting up with Mr Missy's ex.


    Techie, please keep us in the health loop .


    And I hope for a full restaurant review tomorrow Sunny!

    You new found shopping centre sounds good Bridge. And free garlic too!
    Hi there Reggie. Do you realise we haven't had Spinifex out on the water for over a year!!!
    But this coming Thursday we're up to Lake Macquarrie to have a sail on a Seawind 38 we're minding for friends who have moved to Qld. It will probably be a bit of a mess as no-one's been on board her for about 5 months.

    PROBLEM!!!!!
    I can't find my original banksia avatar... I wiped it when I switched... forgot to save it.
    So I'll have to be the kid who knows about the Great Wall of China for another day while I search through Picassa files for old garden photos from Kiama.

      Here ya go Tawn… the new tank at Wingello. 115,000 litres…. We are capturing from about 200 sq metres of roof space, so that’s 200 litres for every mm of rain. Plus two of the 15,0000 tanks from the machinery shed are slotted into the system so that they can be drained to this main tank. And two tanks have STORZ fittings. Next time I’m there I’ll take a piccy of the el cheapo fire/water pump I got for about $300




      Into the blackberry with glyphosate.




      Mr Rags being very kind and pushing my barrow for me…




      The contemplation log under way.



      Trying for an arty photograph.

        And can any of the botanists amongst you tell me what this is… it’s quite pretty….

        There’s a heap of them growing at the back of the house alongside red hot pokers ( and I don’t know the botanical name for them either).

            After this sleep it will be three sleeps until COTW FIL goes home

            The place is looking just amazing Raggsy.

            Kniphofia spp. Raggsy= Red Hot Poker or yellow or orange.....
            Tiger Lilly sounds right to me, but never studied it as such.

            Jeez techie, you are having a rough trot on top of your biopsy needle last week! If you want to meet nurses, there's easier ways mate

            Highly productive day, late dinner, trip to see 'Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' (not as good as the original, but better than expected.

            Off to continue with the book, just to make sure.

              Thanks Cinders. I can now google it. I thought it may have been but am really clueless on exotic plants..


              And thanks Bridge for the confirmation.


              I assume they're perennials. obviously frost toleran sort of .t. Well, they're underground in winter

                  Oops lost first part of this post. Am on the litle laptop. Sorry.
                  mgrBridge, I'm going to wait till after winter when what I've planted will be alive or dead, then I'll put some piccies up. But it's going to be a fairly long term project. I estimate I'll do it for 3 - 5 yrs then hand over to someone else. But from all our members I'm the only one with any true gardening experience.... bigger than keeping stuff in pots or a tiny Glebe courtyard. My experience with NPWS is also helping with planning too..

                  Just clearing blackberry and other weeds is an all consuming task.
                  I'm part way through doing a mgt plan for planned gardens and plantings.
                  I'll email it to you for commentwhen I've done it. If thats OK with you that is.

                  And as luck would have it I met a local at the general store to-day who does dry stone walling.... I plan to put in an African keystone waist high garden (probably for herbs) late next year. Will be good for people with disabilities to be able to garden, smell and feel things without having to bend over. AND I may be able to do it in sandstone as another contacts dad at Bowral quarry. Networking can lead you in so many directions!!!
