Hi Smellbum,
It seems I was incredibly very stupidly in the rush to get the USB stick and stuff to the post, such that I did not copy all that was on the stick somewhere. How incredibly stupid for the “computer expert” I am trying to be.
I was intending to put a copy of it all here, later, working from the Microsoft Office Word file on the stick. So I can’t do that now, :(
Sorry about that.
It’s wet and cold today, but should warm up a bit tomorrow, for a last week of late summer. I was intending to sit indoors and do a few things on the computer. As a punishment for my stupidity, to help me kick myself in the arse so as to remember to not do it again, I will go out in the rain, in the wet mud, and do some stuff on my latest unconventional gardening project... ... its getting close to finished ....
(If you click on the small pics, then it should get bigger. There should be a bigger pic as well. It may or may not be there for you. And there is a small link to the pic. Hopefully at least one of them will work for you)

The green metal mesh stuff is conventional fence elements, but I am using them very unconventionally. The land before the “fence” is owned by the Town. I tend to use it, and I call it my occupied safety zone. I found that over the years it is quite effective at minimising the effect of all the stupid officially they have routinely inspecting / controlling etc. I fight them there, and it keeps them busy and they don’t look as much as they used to at the activities I do on my property. The end effect suits me better. The land behind the fence belongs to a fairly new neighbour. The older one it used to belong to was a real old miserable prat and pain in the arse to us. As with most of the neighbours nowadays, the new one gets on very well with me. We ( I now ) , have , one way or another, kind of organised the neighbours to suit. Its one of the many now really good things we worked hard to achieve, but are partly wasted, at least for Petra, as she seems to have gone totally mental and brain dead, as far as the two of us are concerned, and seems to have forgotten a lot of great and significant things that were the two of us, here, :(

Hi Smellbum,
Just on the off-chance you pass here today….. Happy Birthday!! :-)
I probably won’t post much more here, at least not for a while. See first if my recent letter or whatever got across. (This is the first of three Birthday posts)
By the way, I don’t think anyone other than me and perhaps you will see these postings. They are in an old Thread thing, well down the list, and not many people even catch any of the new stuff here, let alone ever going down looking at the older Threads. Anyway I have almost “all power” here, so can edit, move , delete stuff of mine or anyone’s
The night before last I went to my “Pooh Bahnhof”, my original train station where I grilled a lot last year. Because of my new train area and special activities this summer season, I have not been there much yet this summer season. Possibly the last time would have been when I took your last letter to read, ( the one before the latest birthday wod of stuff )
The Bushes that hide me a bit, those in between my two tracks and the main two tracks still in use, ( I think I mentioned in a letter that they got massacred early this year by a random attack from the track workers that occasionally, seemingly randomly, tidy away some area alongside the main tracks ), they have not fully recovered yet, so I am less well hidden so it suits perhaps that I was there less this season. (remember to click on these small pics, then they should get bigger for you to see, or click on the small URL link )

I was pleased to see that it appears no one has been there, everything was just as I left it. Just a bit more messy and untidy, - I think a few strong winds recently caused that, blowing around my buckets of rubbish, which in the previous year would have long since been burnt away on a grilling evening. My Beer Bottles are just as I left them. An oversight on my behalf, - when its dark, late and I am a bit drunk, I sometimes forget something, my two mates are always the top priority not to forget, - I have not forgotten yet to take them home with me at the end of a session

So I had your Birthday card as last to open still. (After the couple of wet cold days, the temperature went back up nicely, so it looks like my one off in a lifetime extended Birthday has / is going on a bit in extra time ) So we settled in nicely for the evening.

We have a new friend, since this year. Even if we don’t go there for a while, he consistently appears, a little mouse. Usually he likes to play with and lick a small veggie meat-ball, but we had none this evening, but he was happy to chew on a veggie burger whilst chatting to Pooh

Later, just as it was starting to get dark, when I went to check out my new little area where I sit later in the dark, and had a nice surprise. – The very big story from the start of the year, ( which I have only given you some hints of so far ), gave me some concern that it looked rather obvious and substantial what I had done, and quite frankly I am amazed there was not a lot more interest taken by the track workers, railway police and people walking nearby occasionally. Many days at the end of my activity I threw a few random seed of anything I had. As it turned out, little came from those other than a few yellow mustard things, as in a pic I sent you last time. Instead nature was very kind and some torrential rain downpours encouraged a rapid growth in weeds and stuff that pretty well totally hid all I had been doing. Anyways, the nice surprise, was that in the weeks / months I have not been there, it seems a sunflower has appeared, almost certainly from a seed I threw, as since over 100 years only weeds and similar had ever grown there.
My old digital camera does strange things when it is starting to get dark. I have not figured out why yet. If it flashes the pic is good, but it looks darker than it is. Without the flash, if it chooses randomly not to use it, the quality is poor with a fuzzy pic. Some setting to do with the exposure time I expect, so for a good evening pic without the flash I need to have the camera mounted solidly perhaps. Here is the best few I managed to take on the evening

I went back the next day, partly just to get a better pic, and give it a couple of metal props to help it survive a few strong winds we are having in these last few otherwise nice late summer sunny days
( I had to hide first near my signal to let a long tanker train pass )

That sun flower is just about the only visible evidence of the major thing I did there early this year.

The other reason I popped back in daylight was that again I forgot a few things, - your card, and I left my Beer in the sun. I must be more careful

Just one of my hundreds or sunflower attempts at home this year, has turned into a big one, almost 4 meters. I may have sent a pic of that. As I stupidly did not make a copy of all I sent you for your Birthday, I am not sure.
Anyway, its showing quite nicely this morning in the late summer sun, making a reasonable attempt to be pretty for your Birthday.

Hi there!!!!!!
What a surprise. (Funny name, I might have guessed that a decade or two ago, I thought it might be more like walks___ now?
I was not expecting you to reply. No matter. (I just asked my mate, the only moderator here, ( sandy666 (https://www.excelfox.com/forum/member.php/11857-sandy666) the chap with the devilish Avatar pic) not to delete you as a Spammer, :)
I am not sure what the best way is to “deal with you” here. But you do what you want for now. I will sort it all out later.
Just now I got my head in a hard technical question partly here and mostly in another forum. It might do my brain in for the rest of the day. But tomorrow I will catch up with you again.
(As for notifications, they have been getting worse and worse here as well as in a lot of these places. They work as they should sometimes, but more often they don’t. I should get notification of everything that happens here, as not much does happen, so I would not get flooded with a lot of notifications. I did not get the notification of your post as I should have. But I have finally got around to sitting a lot on my arse after all my summer activities, and that health insurance / health authority problem I mentioned a while back got even worse, but… it came to court, the odds where against me , but I wore your Wilson T-Shirt at the hearing and surprised myself how I sorted them all out, myself, without a Lawyer. So that is a weight off my mind, and so I spend more time at excelfox since a few weeks, trying to get on with my “computer career” attempt)
I will have to go and get on with the forum thing for a while
Catch you a bit later
Alan
