Need to do a little pottering in the garden after work - not much, but tidying up the foliage and watering as we've got family round at the weekend for my daughter's 18th birthday - outdoors and covid safe.
Need to move anything that might be prickly as my 3 year old nephew is over. Must make sure he doesn't dive over the fence of the raised decking at the back of the garage as it's only an 18" fence. The drop is 6 ft to the field. We've only got a 3 foot fence at the back of the garden as there is a big drop into the field below. I replaced a rotten decking slat this morning - the rest is fine, but one's gone !

I think a roll of duck tape might be your friend here. If you stick the lad down, then you don't have to worry about fences and 6 foot drops and prickly things and such like. It's the easier of the two options, no?

Awesome. My brother and dad will be OK with that, but not sure Nana and his mum will be
My son has done the 'drop'. Climbed up a chair near the fence, straight over, but there is a chain link fence there too, he got wedged between the two at the bottom. I had to jump over to get him out.

A rather poor attempt at humour, suggesting that for the cats you walking towards them was an "opportunity", probably to be fed.

oh ok no worries. I try not to step on them, but it's tough when they are swarming ...

Well, as an engineer, I always look to the simple solution for a problem.
If it moves and it shouldn't, then duck tape.
If it doesn't move and it should, then WD40.

Anyways, that's another chunk of the garden under control.
Was followed around by a robin, who was picking up insects where I'd been cutting.
But now I has a thirsty, so time for a and a couple of chocolate biskits.
