Hi good neighbours.
I really don’t like to moan, but there seems to be excessive dog poop on Kidson Terrace and my wife and I are getting very frustrated with it. We walk our dog every day along the paths and have to consistently dodge the poop. Most of it looks as though it comes from a medium to large dog. PLEASE PLEASE if you own a dog make sure you clean up after them.
Cashmere primary children walk theses paths and I’m sure their parents don’t want dirty smelly shoes in their houses.
Many thanks, Ian.

It was made from a pair of jeans from an op shop. "All of my gardening clothes come from op shops," she says. "Large men's shirts make good cover-ups to keep sun and insects off my arms. For the apron, start with a smaller size than you would wear so it doesn't wrap around too far. Check that it has a lot of pockets." So tell us if you've got similarly fashionable, exclusive-for-the-garden glad rags, and if yes, why not post a photo in the Reply space too!
