A visit from the banana benders.




The backyard at my sons house, I've never seen it with out bits of timber and other building materials laying around, looks pretty good now. My son and daughter were down last week to sort out some drainage problems in the bathroom and laundry.  
His tenants have two dogs, so the only things laying around now is a few dog toys.
The dogs have there own house once was the cat house.
Cute little fellows guarding the back door.
and the old bath is just right for the dogs.

I always liked the kitchen

But the bathroom had a drainage problem so he had a few jobs to sort out.




Work done the beer fairy and son off to play golf
Like father like son both have to pull silly faces if you aim a camera at them.
Notice I gave them a second chance the beer fairy hasn't changed and the son has another silly look.
Who knows what they are doing here, notice the back door holder uper poor old Charlie (thats the cars name), he is the work horse that lives out the front of our place.
My tree is in flower maybe about two weeks a year.

My front fence needs a paint

This is for my laundry floor but now everyone tells me I will need about ten bags. Lots of advice, any way I got different ideas now, will update you when i get it all worked out.

  5. I think the floor levelling product was quite new when we used it in about 1988. It worked reasonably well.

  8. Love to see all the flowers blooming, Merle! I remember your son's house and the place he had the cats. It's nice that he can spend time with his Dad whenever he has landlord duties. Your floor is going to look nice when you are done. Hope you have enough materials. xo Karen

  13. Merle,
    I hope your son figures out the drainage problem in his bathroom - that's a pain, isn't it? He has a big kitchen, and that's the first thing I noticed. I like your tree with the red flowers. They must make you smile when you pass them.

    Have a good rest of the week, Merle, and thank you for your thoughts and comment on my father-in-law.

    love,
    ~Sheri
