The watering can


A little garden nearby. For a couple of other shots from this little mixed flower and vegetable garden, check out my overflow site:

Is that a lead water butt I see? Your yesterday's tractor driver would not win the prize for Straight Furrows at a ploughing match!

Watch out for wheat. Bread prices are going up already, so expect the whole of Villigen to go under wheat for the coming season - compulsory purchase on your house!

Have a good week.

Nice little garden corner. I like the metal watering can. More attractive than plastic ones.

Chuckeroon: Not lead, concrete. It's actually not moveable, and there's a spigot above it, just barely visible at the top of the photo. It's like a simple fountain really.

Claude: The metal looks nice, but is heavy compared to the plastic. After many trips to and from the trough, perhaps plastic starts to look better.

The winter wheat seeds will be sown approx mid October....sometime around or after 16th Oct, if my memory is good. I hope that the rains have not damaged this year's crop too seriously.

Yes, I prefer plastic watering cans (mine is bright blue), but metal ones take good "weathered' pics I think!
