Zooming around
« on: July 25, 2009, 17:53:31 »
Saw a bit of sunshine this afternoon so I thought I would zoom around and take a few pics for my July picture gallery;

Just beautiful TeeGee. I think it has been asked before.. how many hours do you spend on your garden> 24/7? :'(

how many hours do you spend on your garden> 24/7?

Its a difficult one to answer because it is seasonal

Spring; about 15-20 hours per week mainly propagating

Summer; About 8-10 hours per week on the allotment watering,Feeding & weeding

The wife looks after the garden at home after I have planted it out!

Autumn; 10-12 hours per week getting the winter digging done.

After that its only a case of popping down to the allotment as an when I need to harvest anything.

Great music too!

Glad you liked it Tim.

Have been considering for some time as whether to add music to my slide shows simply because my taste might not be to the viewers liking......difficult one!

What do you all think?

Background music or not?

I love the angels fishing rods TeeGee. Next time could you put Clare de lune music on your slides cos I really do love the tune :-*
When I get old I don't want people thinking
                      "What a sweet little old lady"........
                             I want em saying
                    "Oh Crap! Whats she up to now ?"

Great slideshow, as always, Tee Gee. :D

As for the musical accompaniment, I seem to hold a different opinion to everyone else; I'm not a fan of music being played automatically when a page loads (even when I like the tune). Very occasionally I'll mute my audio, more often than not I'll exit the page immediately.
