garden, and hope that some frogs feel inclined to move in. I
wish for frogs...

And now, to comply with the title - the crossing of the post.
Shouldn't you Xpost to a gardening/pond or frog group?
It's mainly bait for a particularly funky frog if he ever checks in.
Post by MerlyneIf you do that, you need to make sure that either a) the pond is
deep (below the frost line) or failing that b) you must removed
the frogs before winter lest they become balls of slimy green
goop in the spring.
We rarely get sustained periods of freezing here and also there
will be water running to and being pumped from the pond. And a
little spring on a hill at the other end...
It shall all be very pretty and calming.
Send pictures when you're done.
You mean "if ever", obviously...
You're retired. It's not like you have anything else to do.
I still have to get the apples in before we get frost...
That takes a couple of hours, after which you'll go inside for a snack
and put the tv on and doze off.
Start tomorrow then.
I didn't get the apples in today. I did move a great deal of stone from
won part of the garden to another, except for the last rather large one,
which was to heavy to get onto the barrow. I tried moving it with a
"sack-cart" (things-moving thing with a trowel at ground level), but the
tires were flat and when I pumped them (guessing ~40psi was reasonable)
the tire blew up. So that's for another day.
And then I went inside for a snack and put the tv on.
