Trying to beat the frogs today by getting as much weed out of our pond as I can before the frogs move in. We are often kept awake by frisky frogs at this time of the year. I then have to get protective with the spawn to stop a pair of Mallards hovering it up!

Dismal performance today like the weather by my football team against an average Stoke team. Lucky there are no cats around! The word naïve comes to mind in summing that up!. On to Tuesday!
