Power washing

I made the mistake of feeding those ruddy canal geese a while ago. Well, they have remembered. I have so many photos of them in various lighting conditions and poses. But their poo is something else. I’ve had to keep the gates closed to stop them coming to the front door, but they just sit outside and POO. It makes good compost apparently, so I collect it up. The older stuff is just like processed grass, but it’s not very pleasant to begin with.

The geese seem to remember me as well. I was walking back from the shops when they saw me in the distance and came running at me. They hiss, but this seems to be in excitement more than anything. It’s a little bit scary, but I can’t show I;m afraid in case anyone is looking at this soft Soutnerner lol.

Yesterday evening Viewfinders had an excellent time at Flamborough and Bempton Cliffs. There were only a few puffins but quite close. Lots of  gannets

Well, I have been busy this morning. I’m getting everything ready for John’s bash on Saturday. Bed linen all present and correct. One pressie wrapped. Power washed the back top patio. John is going to do the slope and bottom patio before lunch. He is getting up earlier at last thank goodness. Not quite back to normal but getting there.
