      I am really lucky.  I have a large coal cellar.  I put the leaves in large sealed plastic sacks, chuck them in the coal cellar for 2 years and boom, perfect leaf mould to improve our soil…..

      Les does say, he thinks that I have some bodies buried down there  🙂 🙂

        Ha, fortunately, the City of Austin has a compost program so all of these leaves will be composted.  The bad thing about it is that this represents about half of the leaves I'll be dealing with this year.  There are still plenty of pecan trees with some or most of their leaves.

          This is "Fall" in Texas.  I collected 32 bags of leaves and enjoyed balmy 80F weather while doing so.

          Good to see all your old Iron Heart bags came in handy.  😉

            First package of the new year from the UK. Got hit with a €22 customs fee. Great stuff that Brexit. 🙄🙄

                  I don't believe that this was a package from us, was it?  If not, I would appreciate you saying so.

                  We're working hard to try to ensure our EU customers don't see any changes in the way we ship to them, or incur extra fees on delivery, although we do expect there will be some "hiccups" along the way.

                  If the package was from us, please send me details, we need all the feedback we can get during these early days.  As you say, Brexit is a real bundle of fun 😞

                    So yeah you should've specified this wasn't an IH package…

                    IHxUK sent my package yesterday afternoon. It arrived at 1.16PM here. No fees. Obviously no hassles. IH for the win.
                    Thanks, IHxUK!..  😎

                      Same here! Delivered within 24 hours instead of the usual 48. Thank you IH, well done.

                      Having no destination, I’m never lost.

                          I guess I should have specified that.

                            There are certainly a lot of them out there in my experience.

                                  My collegue, who just retired, was diagnosed with leukemia over a decade ago… She has to have her blood checked regularly, but so far it hasn't been a real issue yet...

                                  So here's to hoping your mom has a "mild" case as well!.. And yeah: FUCK CANCER. Really sorry to hear, goosehd.
