SPRING-Clean Declutter - Need Help

Re: SPRING-Clean Declutter - Need Help

@Former-Member
2 t-shirts vs 4 garbage bags = good trade.
Have been out a fair bit this weekend, did a small amount of weeding only and have a couple more items of clothing ready to give away.
Still time for me to deal with 2 things and I will.

@Adge
Anything to report on the rampaging rodents?

Re: SPRING-Clean Declutter - Need Help

They've gone a lot more quiet @Former-Member I don't think I've heard them for a few days (fingers & toes crossed).

Maybe I've finally bumped them off.

Otherwise I will have to somehow get a pest exterminator, despite the cost - I've not had to do that before (except for termites).

My neighour came up to me this morning (we're not on speaking terms usually, since she ran over my cat).

She wants to replace the entire side-fence (45 year old Jarrah palings) - it will cost well over $2000.

I agreed, because it certainly does need doing. I put in many days (weeks) of repair work on that fence, 13 years ago (but I had help back then).

It's a big unexpected expense, though obviously a good & necessary thing.

I'm still recovering from the shock of that sudden decision, & trying to figure out how to come up with the money...

Oh, some hedge pruning (de-cluttering) will have to be done - to give the tradesmen access to the entire length of the fence (to replace it).
