Dont go on the sunbed son! & time for a fence!

Open mouthed! is the only way I could describe my reaction to this Sky News story teenagers shoot a man "for the fun of it" !!! A 14 and 15 year old as well as a 17 year old were "bored" driving around Duncan , Oklahoma.  They came across a budding baseball star out jogging and gunned him down.  - - -
Here's the victim Chris Lane from Melbourne who was on a baseball scholarship.  RIP

Not being one who, "has to have a tan"

I didn't realise that "sunbeds" were still very popular. This Sky News story relates that skin cancer deaths are 70% higher in men !

The problems at the tsunami hit nuclear plant at Fukushima in Japan don't seem to want to go away with the increased level of concern at water leaking form the redundant plant.  300 tons of radioactive water have leaked into the ocean!

There are some interesting pics in this Mail article on award winning i phone photographs  - - - worth a look

Closer to home - - -I spent yesterday helping out Jenny one of the Peak Organics girls clearing their site at the tops of our terrace house gardens.
I had the task of clearing the ground near to the wall in the pic so that cardboard and then a membrane can be laid to form a pathway.  Sally, on the right is arriving being the Tea lady, a welcome sight.
Here Jenny has laid the cardboard and membrane
It had been scheduled that Vanessa, the other organiser would be measuring up their plot to establish where they think our garden boundary is.  Although she attended later the measuring never got off the ground, obviously a hard day at work for her! 

Finally - - - The fence posts and rails for our garden enclosure programme are being delivered this morning so it will be full steam ahead once they are here. Progress can be tracked to some degree by studying our yard cam on the website!- - Back to the fun factory tomorrow for a series of shifts! 
Enjoy the day
