#Autumn #Leaves
Leaves on the lawn cleared in an hour.
The beech trees that border my garden will keep shedding leaves for another few weeks yet!

First thing that popped into my head when I saw this was Zelda from Terrahawks.

Overnight, the beech trees have prepared my next round of raking and bagging!

This time of year, I have so many leaves to clear-up every day.
Yesterday afternoon, I spent about 1.5hrs taking and bagging the leaf-fall for the past two days.

I mowed my lawn yesterday, garden covered in leaves this morning.
Autumn was watching me and started overnight!

Surely all he wants is a golden statue for his mantelpiece?
Just get this 3D printed.

Everyone out (at school, work, or walking dogs) and all electrical devices are “off”; house still using 80W power - is about as low as it gets in my house.
All the devices on standby, WiFi router, oven clock etc.
I may have to calculate how much this residual power usage actually costs per year.

Another attempt at latte art; this might even look like a flower?

My wife and grown-up children are planning for Christmas, subject of Christmas-day dinner being discussed along with suggestions about what I can cook on the BBQ (kamado oven).

I thought I'd get in there early with my preferences and what I think cooks on the BBQ.
Anyone else not like turkey?

Hang on!
Does this count as a notification?
Are the notifications always with us?

This meme seems apt.

Don’t think the facts would back-up your assertion.

Looks like I have a new cat roaming around close to my house.
It is very pretty and not scared of my car.

So, dear cat lovers, is this a Ragdoll or a Birman? Or maybe another breed?

I wear my smart watch for sleep tracking; didn’t expect to be ‘told off’ by my app this morning for a health vitals outlier data point due to having too much sleep at 8h26m!

Marnie, relaxing on this Sunday afternoon.

Haven’t had to run a defrag for about 20 years!
But it is compulsory to watch this until it’s complete!

Helping my parents have a bit of a clear out this weekend, they want me to dispose of / recycle an old PC - Dell XPS T450 w Pentium III and 9GB HDD.
I think I’ll have a tinker first for old times sake and give a bit of TLC with a disk scan and defrag.

We have dogs, so nails need trimming often but ain’t no way I’m paying a vet to do that job every few weeks. My wife keeps their nails trim, she has gotten very good at it.
Tatu had her’s done a few days ago, although her few claw probably needs a clip too. Our tools for the job in the piccies.

Thunderbugs!

This time of year we always seem to get these tiny bugs and they get EVERYWHERE!
This little guy even got inside my computer screen!

In my part of the World, the next 10 days will be mostly 25C or higher, even over 30C some days.
We get high humidity too, so it just feels too hot!

It’s Father’s Day, I got a great and very apt present!

Happy Father’s Day to all the other Dads.
