Re: Spring is nearly here!

I can't say I've ever notice having a problem with the hydrogen peroxide loosing it's potency, something I'll look out for in the future. I've been busy in the garden this week, hasn't the weather been glorious, preparing some of my vegetable beds. I was surprised how wet the ground was with a spade...

Re: Spring is nearly here!

It's not just St Asaph that gets flooded. I had to cut short this morning's walk with the dog as the foot bridge over the ditch on my usual walk was flooded.

The picture is a bit blurred as it was blowing a gale which made holding the phone steady a bit difficult.

Re: Spring is nearly here!

Sad to see St Asaph has been flooded once again. Raising the river bank in one area and then high spring tides and heavy rain usually means the flood waters have to back up and overflow the bank further upstream. I could see on the news that Llanwrst also had severe flooding problems. Living on a hi...

Re: Spring is nearly here!

I went for a walk with the dog up Moel Famau this morning and could see that the Black Grouse have once again put up the decorations on their Christmas Tree.

Re: Spring is nearly here!

We've certainly had a lot or rain recently. I was walking up Moel Famau with the dog this morning and I could see in the distance that the river Clwyd had overflowed its banks in several of places near Denbigh. A lot of the fields were flooded although this is not a rare occurrence as these fields w...

Re: Spring is nearly here!

The rocket fuel used was paraffin but I guess we must have spilt some on the rocket.

Re: Spring is nearly here!

November the 5th was the date set for the launch of the North Wales Space Agencies first flight. Jones1 was designed and built by my brother and it was initially intended to land on the moon but we later thought this was a bit ambitious for the first flight so we settled on an orbit around the earth...

Re: Spring is nearly here!

I was up in Snowdonia on Friday walking up the Watkin Path it was a beautiful sunny autumn day. I could see on the BBC that on Saturday there were several inches of snow on the A5 at Capel Curig.

Re: Spring is nearly here!

I remember watching one of the spring watch programmes from Bristol a few years ago. They couldn't understand how a badger kept getting into someones back garden until they set up a camera and saw it climbing over a 4ft high chain link fence.
