Outside my window...

...on a mild autumn day in the Waikato.
I spent the last hour and a half finishing the lawn whilst Dr D chainsawed up a kart(coastal pittosporum) to add to the future  firewood store. He then gathered today's fallen walnuts before coming in.I had to twist his arm to buy this fabulous gadget nearly 20 years ago and it's a real favourite...super-efficient and back-saving too!
