I have a well here so no money spent for water, other than the upkeep for the well and pipes, of course. There is also a hose system for the plants, but we don't waste water if it can be helped. I've even reduced use of my much loved jacuzzi. And the home help would be....?

Yes. It is a job to agree on all things. One can imagine him thinking, 'well why does it matter.?' Also a relief to shuttle back to normal.

Re: Re: CCT

We got on well because in the USNavy, Ribcage had taken a course on Anger Management.  So whenever we clashed on a subject (I am pretty opinionated) he would go off to his room and stay there until he was over whatever it was, and then when he came out he changed the subject and was meek as a lamb, so how could I not be also.

Re: PAT

Yes I am afraid it takes it out of one even to maul one can about. Remember when I could carry ten gallons in one hand.

Re: Good Afternoon Goldiec

Well Goldiec we are banned from using the hose but we use more by filling tubs and dipping the cans in.

Re: Taps

Taps I first saw you having a mock fight with a young man. Of course I remember when you moved in with Ribcage . 'You said you did know if you could get on together, but is went pretty smoothly. Yes plenty of memories, you are quite gentle now.

I know you are a master at imagining what is not there.  How do I know?  I've been reading you for as long as I can now remember.  Keep trucking!

Good Afternoon

We use our watering cans in the rain barrel.  We mostly water the plants on the patio with them.  They do come in handy.  If we have a lot of plants to water sometimes we will use the hose but we do try to save water.

I have one watering can - actually plastic, small enough to fill

in the kitchen sink. When mom had her garden it usually rained aplenty, but I was grateful for the hose and irrigation ditches, because after two or three trips the watering can gets  h e a v y.

Good afternoon

I love watering cans. I have quite a few that are old and a few that are decorative. I have a few vegetables that are still thriving, and the watering cans are of great help.
