Doing things at home today as it was (mostly) dry..pirate defeated a 15" x 15" x 18" block of concrete ( I helped too!) that had held a washing pole...the pry bar is in the remnants of the pole.
and we moved the replacement pole still in its concrete block two feet over into the hole that the original left behind. Now the pole is no longer in the way, and neighbour can reach it to renew her line..a job she has been thinking of doing for a while!
herbs and cuttings all sorted,re-potted or planted,
and the same for roses and geraniums. They will be out in a bed in front of the house, eventually.
and tonight's sunset...
You'll have to imagine that the sun wasn't burning through as much, and the rosy bits were really rosy...it was breathtaking...
At 10.45 pm, the neighbour's chooks are refusing to go indoors as it is too light..as we've had buzzards and foxes around lately he has to stay up late to get them in!!

yuck that pole stuck in concrete would've been hard work to pull out. I've been weeding our garden all morning.
Amy a certain amount of basic digging around it then leverage (76 kg of me on the end of a scaffold board exerts a fair amount of leverage!) and stacking bricks under it as it came up...then carefully rolling it..
Good engineering, you all! Love my potted flowers, and herbs too. Hopeyou have many booms over the summer.
Poor confused chickens! They must be tired!
