This weekend we had a visit from one of our favourite
people...Andy. It was a great weekend full of fun, a couple of bottles of tasty
wine, simple fare and tales of his travels across the globe. Friday night we
relaxed in the garden with a few glasses of wine while I planted some seedlings
and then we pondered (and oohed and ahhhed) over his collection of photos from
his recent adventures. Whilst in the garden I mentioned that I needed to go and
collect more bamboo to start putting around the new garden so I could keep Sugar
and the chooks from demolishing my handy work. The first thing Andy said was “So
is that’s tomorrow’s mission?” That is what I love about you Andy...your sense
of adventure and always up for a mission...you are now officially my bamboo
buddy!
Friday night the phone rang and a little voice asked “Aunty,
can we come and stay with you for the day tomorrow?” So Saturday morning the
four of us piled in my car, loppers, garden twine and secateurs in hand and
toddled off to the bamboo forest. Sadly I forgot to take my camera but we did
find our way and got enough sticks to do a good quarter fence panel. I will go
and get some more tomorrow hopefully and then I will start wiring them
together. Here is the first section ready to be wired together.
