COLD DARK ROOM

[MenagerieGrl]

I did report them to the police a few years ago. A young community police officer came about a month later and asked me what I expected her to do. I said I wanted her to make it clear to the neighbours that it was criminal damage and trespass, but when she went around to them I heard her laughing in the garden with them about it. It's not exactly crime of the century so the police don't take it seriously.
However, their house is actually owned by a housing association (a mortgage rescue package I believe) so I did contact them and I think they must have given a warning, because then the neighbours started hanging 4 lettered cushions on their line spelling out a not very nice 'c' word! If he starts to cut it again I'll go straight to them.

Lyn, just be carefull, someone who get's that worked up over a hedge, might be a lil unstable....

I agree, if they go on about a bush like that, who knows what they'll do if they see Lola. But I'd say no reason to panick, just stay aware when he's outside etc

Hopefuly they don't bother, I'd just be calm and check it out. Hopefuly they haven't been like that to Lola?

They don't know about Lola, but every spring/summer they target the tree.
They always cut it when I'm out, so last year I started using my wildlife camera to keep an eye on it.

He definitely is - the other men on the street have said that 'he's not right in the head!' In fact one offered to ask some men he knows to come and sort him out for me! I didn't fancy a spell in prison so declined his offer

Happy Autumn Equinox to you!

Another pretty nice Spring day here in Maryland. Sunny & bright, but a bit cooler with stronger breezes. Lots of turtles up basking.

I got a new toy finally whew I'm so glad. I have to hear music EVERY DAY!. My little insignia all in one finally quit. I've had to use my cell phone on utube to get music. I couldn't get on here much,use my favorite camera, send a text and my right arm was cut off I finally found a little device I like and splurged. It's retro...

Good morning/afternoon all, the sun is trying to come out here but it's a bit hazy at the moment, looks like we'll be seeing quite a lot of it through the week and temps are rising.
I have no big plans for today but I'm sure I'll find something to keep me busy.
I hope you'll have a good Tuesday.
TTFN

Another morning on the water for me, a bit cooler & overcast. More stumps to inspect. Few turtles.

I'm afraid I just wasted A LOT of money (that I really couldn't afford to waste). I bought a Chromebook and I hate it! I've just spent the last hour trying to understand it. Never did figure out how to scroll the screen. Only way I was able to figure out how open CDR was to do a search for it. Couldn't figure out how to move the screen down to Personal Promotion. What i see on the screen when I sign on is all I have access to and it only shows down to Introductions.

I don't like the mouse pad. I don't like how you click on something. I DON'T LIKE IT!!!

I thought it would come with a touch screen - no, it didn't.

I'm going to try to use it every day and hopefully I'll figure out how it works, but as of this moment, I DON'T LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The above was done on my Kindle

Q: What do Gardeners & Tortoise Keepers have in common?

A: They both like to use sturdy outdoor enclosures to keep their critters contained.

Just watched this gardening video on YouTube. If you arent handy in building things or are shocked at the price of wood these days, this product might be a good fit. Plus, two or more can be combined to make much larger enclosures.

Hi Yvonne,
You might try these beginning tutorial:

I don't have a chromebook, But I hate touch pads, so I have a cordless mouse that has a lil dongle that plugs into a USB port. This allows you to scroll & right/Left click.

I really like that raised bed, but the web site leaves much to be desired

Thank you!

Yvonne, Your welcome...
I can imagine how hard it might be. I try my best to stay away from Chrome as much as I can, as with Amazon, they already are harvesting way to much info.
I would be lost if I go a Mac-book, or similar. I have never operated one, but I'm told they are somewhat intuitive...

I think mousepads let you scroll if you use 2 fingers at same time. I'm not sure tho, I hate mousepads also, I use separate trackball

I'm on my 3rd Chromebook. I use a remote mouse. Don't let your self get so frustrated as that just makes it worse. I can't use a mouse pad because my fingers stay too cold...I use a mouse and it has a wheel that up push with your finger an it scrolls the screen down. Just keep messing with it, it really is simple...
