Could you make sure someone knows when you're going out there and then when you're finished? That's what my neighbour used to do when he was working in his garden cutting his hedges, just so I could listen out and he'd knock on the wall three times when he was finished safely. Even when I was a lot younger and fitter, when I worked in the manor garden, I'd make sure someone knew where I was and about how long I'd be if I was doing something off the ground.
Reporting in. :giggle: Cleared as much ivy as I can reach. on my little stool. Looking better, any ivy left is right on top of neighbours shed where I cannot reach. Needed a ladder but would not feel safe. I will have a word with the guy when I come home. He has 2 grandsons that help him sometimes, maybe they can reach it. Shame because it is not his ivy, it comes from the guy next to him.
No probs, Doreen will sort them out. Nicely of course.
:d'oh:I was naughty last night, I ate the rest of the cheese in the packet. Thought I had blown it but looked back to see how much I had already had and subtracted it from the amount I bought. I ate 80g too much. Equivalent of a healthy A and B for today. Maybe not so bad after all.

Hello Everyone. I weighed today and I have finally dropped just below 11 stone!!! I am so delighted. I can't remember the last time.
Hope you have all had a good Sunday. Good weather down here.
I have done quite a lot in the back garden today. Not too hot so was out there for a couple of hours. Half of it was deadheading roses and getting rid of weeds. Not done this since end of July. Green bin 1/2 full.
Next hour getting all the ivy down that hangs over my back fence. Lots of stretching for this as so high. Had a rest after that 2 hrs. Green bin nearly full.
Went to visit a friend this afternoon. Had T and biscuits.
The ivy mentioned above is still on the shed in the garden behind me along with other rubbish so am hoping to stand on a 1ft high stool to get some of that down tomorrow before I go away Tuesday.
Have had a productive day. First one for ages.
