Goat Man, Mouse man, Cat Man, Snake Man and now……………. Bat Man
Another tale to tell.
The weather is going cooler, and windier, and so quite a few leaves get blown into the pool and they need taking out.
Recently saw a few – they will stay on the surface and then they will sink to the bottom – from a fruit tree.
So, I get the extended mesh net to scoop them out.
One ‘leaf’ was moving and on closer inspection it turned out to be a small bat!!
He was struggling with his swimming stroke – I can’t recommend the ‘BATterfly’ or indeed the ‘BATstroke’.
On the basis they only fly at night he may have been in the water for a good few hour’s!
Get him out of the water and into the sun. Then I put him in a small cardboard box so he can keep warm in the sunshine and not be bothered by the breeze.
20 minutes later he (or she) is off – another success!!

Smart Homes & Beyond ..
Anyone who knows me even slightly, knows I am at heart, a massive Gadget geek, and I have been since a small boy, the relentless march of technology has seen some wonderful advancements in areas that make our lives easier and I know that the Younger generation take these for granted..(My Neighbours daughter actually asked what a Camera was the other day…we had to explain that they are separate items, not just attached to Mobile phones & iPads.)

The Synchro Garden – The growing season
Well with all the planting done, irrigation set up and timers on. It’s just watching them all grow now , doing some weeding and then tying them to frame them as they get bigger.
