Yes, it is finally Henry's turn to feature in my 'Boy in Garden' series....I caught some shots of him today while he was having a wander around the garden...of course he delighted in pointing out things that needed doing...the grass has grown a huge amount in the week we have been away and thus the lawn needs mowing. Yet despite that there are huge cracks in the lawn. He thinks the pallets leaning up against the tree are not only good for climbing, but might make ideal tree house building material. The pond needs the green growth clearing somewhat as well. I did explain that I had been busy all day clearing out, cleaning and rearranging the Cavy shed today, while he and others seemed to be oblivious to the hard work that had been going on....
Hey, Brown Eyes, we missed you on your blog. Glad you had a great holiday but sorry we weren't at home to say hello.
ReplyDeleteEmrys says to tell you the nearest you can get to pronouncing Aberystwyth in English spelling is Ab -ur -isst-with (to rhyme with 'wiff') with the accent on the'isst' bit, if that makes sense.
Hwyl!
Jenni (who is having the same difficulty in pronouncing Irish words!)
That sounds about right Jenni and Emrys.... It is so interesting to spend time in different countries and areas to hear all the different accents and languages...fascinating and quite challenging at times!
DeleteThat's the worst of going away on holiday that however much you leave everything neat and tidy before you leave it just doesn't stay that way so that within a couple of days of returning home, fresh and relaxed, you are worn out trying to get things sorted and back to normal again.
ReplyDeleteGreat to have you back though 'Dear' Henry.
Indeed! There always seems so much to do and contend with both in the house and in the garden, it is difficult to keep up.
DeleteHope you are also catching Henry's blog posts on his blog as well :-)
So nice to see Henry here and looking handsome in his bibs and boots! Glad you are back and posting again. Your pond is really lovely and thriving too! :) xxx
