hi h - wish i had a huge pasture full of daffodils. a lovely flower, imo. good to hear u got the tick out. not a user-friendly pest!So I got one more gift to go with yesterdays maple syrup. I wake up this am and a tick had dug in deep on my side. Had my wife get it off but it was in there. So spring is here with maple syrup, frogs calling in the pond, my wife's daffodils are coming up and the first tick.
bloddy he** mate, i do think you've got it!I thought it was me, but now I think the whole world is cockeyed.
I had a could of British coworkers over the years. One of my favorites was "rubbish".
Also when a British person says the F word it sounds so much better. I watch Gordon Ramsey's cooking videos and he is good at dropping those too.
nice! looks like time for some homemade waffles n maple syrup -Ended up with just shy( like 8 oz )of 2 gallons of nice amber syrupView attachment 896944View attachment 896946
Also used a syrup hydrometer for the first time made life much easierView attachment 896947View attachment 896948
as a younger man i worked for a company that made them. all sizes. lots of glass based scientific instruments. and a shop full of glass blowers, shapers. first the tubes were blown, then made, scaled, sealed and calibrated, etc...Tends to be a problem whe you use a thermometer to test it's done 7° over the boiling temp of water at your elevation. Ive overdone some and you get very thick syrup with sugar crystals on the bottom like rock candy i scrap it out and munch on it , If you use a crappy thermometer it's a crap shoot. The hydrometer works all the time
Yes maple sugar candy is like crack!!!maple sugar at the bottom was great, almost addictive to eat.
'govnurr'.... lol, right! everyone over there is a govnurr... right, govnurr? 'cept maybe the QueenI had a guy from India on my shift who made a several year pit stop in the UK before coming to the U.S., he drove taxis in London. I was the supervisor, he called me govnurr. Ha ha. Interesting combination of accents and terms.
yeah, leave a note! someone i know... wanted a lil piece a land up by the lake. likes to fish. spotted 4 ac. he liked. 'nope, not for sale!'... not to be outdone, he went next door, introduced himself... and no, not for sale! so left his card... time caught up with them both. smaller land owner died recently, and daughter found the other guy's card n note in his belongings. had no idea the card was there. so called the first guy! a sale took place a few days ago... and he could almost cast into the lake from his new place. more or less unimproved, plans to build and move there.Maybe the new owner also needs wood? Stop by, or send him a note, telling him that you are 'the guy', and would like to keep being 'the guy'.

Speaking of, I just ordered 4 ounces of maple sugar candy as well as maple cream, maple syrup, and bourbon barrel maple syrup from a friend up in the western Catskills. His prices are a lot higher than my old friend in Vermont but hopefully it is good stuff.Yes maple sugar candy is like crack!!!
You may wish to straw away from using those bottles for fuel, when they begin the breakdown you get all sorts of nasties mixed into your fuel mix, messes saws up good.i had an idea and it led me to scrounge up a mobile fuel farm. handy! i hate to run out of gasoline when using my walk-behinds... wanted a high sided box and i added some slip in dividers... now all i gotta do is load up... and pour! no fuss, no mess... and no spills. thinking one fuel cell marked MXD mite work for me, too... when doing them long pasture line fences.... has a funnel kit, too for ez pour convenience.
