Re: Rookie Mistake
Wot? No automatic Docking mechanism in a Honda?
If I were you I'd trade it in for something in a different colour so you can find it easily The Morning After


Cheers

Or you'll have to do a LOT of shoveling.

Re: Rookie Mistake
It would seem that the saying to which I allude [there are fairies at the bottom of my garden] is not so well known among some supposedly-educated Loungers as one might have presumed!
I supply the source as Rose Amy Fyleman.

Re: Rookie Mistake
Not to worry, John, it is an easy enough mistake for a rookie.
FWIW at the bottom of my garden is Bonavista's largest continuous-flow modular composting system, constructed from fairiess bits of scrap timber.

Re: Rookie Mistake
I have to admit to never having heard of "There are fairies at the bottom of my garden".

I always refer to my compost heap as feeding Wiggly Woo, because it's main purpose seems to be feeding the worms

Re: Rookie Mistake
This is what bad weather looks like in my part of the world at this time of the year.
We've just moved house. We're now 15 minutes from the beach, not 2 hours.
That's my lovely wife in the picture. My other wife wasn't available.
