Currently at a centreparcs in the UK. Pint of guinness now £7.50 a pint this year and 7.5% tip added to all restaurant bills. I’m no Gucci belt owner but I do own a Paul Smith belt (naked lady of course).
So todays day of relaxation did not go to plan.
Some piece of human excrement has decided to lace the footpath in the woods in the valley with barbed wire.
My dog ran off down the track like he usually does, next came a squeal and crying.
Found him wrapped up in the stuff. Managed to cut most of it away with my multi tool. But had to take him to the vet to get the rest removed.
So now I have a very sorry for himself dog, that’s high on painkillers and Its cost me the best part of £300…
Police didn’t seem to give a ****, but the two farmers that own the land either side are checking the rest of the trail and their cameras.
I suspect it’s one of the old ***** up in the housing estate. They always complain about the dogs being off their leads in the woods.

Had to rehome about 100 caterpillars from garden last 2 days.
As keep half the garden wild, get quite a bit of nature. And I always keep some ragwort. This has built up a cycle of cinnebar moth last 3 years.
Alas. This year I was overloaded and all the ragwort is gone.
Had to rescue these guys and walk them to the park and had another batch of these today.

The invasive box moth caterpillar? That's here too! The neighbours box hedges are destroyed.After the first spring with my new box hedge, I realised the hungry caterpillar was not a fun children's book, but a book of nightmares.
Why does windows hide cool features...

WD40 is better as a dispersant (i.e. get rid of water/crud) not a lubricant (i.e. stick to the place you put it to make it smooth).Today I learnt why you shouldn't spray WD40 in a paper shredder while running it. I wouldn't mind, but I've been using WD40 on shredders like this for years, so I guess my luck ran out.
New shredder time.
