Nobody can creep up on us now

Hooray and hoorah! The triffids are gone! The beasts were felled on Thursday. And hey presto: here is our new view from our lounge window:
We can see every passer by~ we had no idea how many there were! It is quite funny to see how many people look surpised as they pass by.It's really, really cool and sociable.
We feel as if we have gained a whole new garden, which will be very nice once the surplus soil has gone and some nice plants are embedded.
However, there is a slight downside to the new development.... It now affords us with a full and merciless view of:

Next door's rotting carvan and car.

Hmmm! Methinks a fence will be called for on this side. Fences are nice because they don't grow and if the wind doesn't blow them over, all you have to do is paint them every ten years.

Barthez is a bit disgruntled. He used to shelter under the triffids when it was raining. He keeps sniffing at the stumps and walking off in disgust.
