• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler

My pond water was at just above 10 degrees, its been slowly rising these last couple of weeks, just over 14 degrees now, Koi don't mind the temperature rising its dropping sharply that causes problems, so I hope that doesn't happen.
My fish was piping hot, and the beer cold in a chilled glass, cheers😃
 
Did my lawn today and then weeded one of the borders. I need to clean the patio and paths and also the driveway. May get some of it done tomorrow as it’s a late kick off. I’m not a fan of gardening so the weather has to be good for me to get going.
 
Back Garden ✅ Front Garden ✅

I think this is the earliest I have cut it! The grass bag was about 75% full, where normally I leave it so late, looking at about 5 full grass bags worth. 😳

Three weeks earlier than you done it last year.

Was it? God knows. I mean obviously the weather, can play a part in making the grass grow like crazy, but I can’t see me getting 5 grass bags full in April.

Hmm, food for thought that, admittedly I have let it go over the years, and then had a right toil when it had grown so long.

Anyway all done now, and going to keep on top of it . 💪 🌻😎

Yeah this thread started this time last year.

I honestly thought it was a new thread started, 😂

Kudos on the detective work there Sherlock, it took me a little bit of tiresome scrolling to discover it was indeed the 12th April, the scary thing reading back through some of those posts, they seem way more recent than a Year! Has it really gone that quickly. 😳
 
Mission accomplished this weekend; all assigned jobs executed with aplomb. Enforced break for the footy (we shall not go there). Bonus point awarded for a successful MOT for the BBQ, which wasn’t on the task list. Small issue: Mrs C isn’t keen on the colour that I painted the garage doors. But to end on a positive note she chose it, not me.
 
Mine had its first trim towards the end of February, but it was looking as rough as a badgers …… afterwards. It had a second cut last week and a shorter trim today and it’s looking a better. My Mrs doesn’t know much about gardening, so she’s happy it’s green and short - albeit it’s nearly all moss. She’ll go mental when I scarify it.
 
Just a heads up for all the avid grass cutters out there, grass bags are now free, yes FREE, no more worrying are they going to be there, when you get home. 🤣
