I think I need a duck pond.

It was in ukfd I think, Vicky. But yes, a pond with some moving water
is a help!


My problem is my aversion to mosquitos. Ponds are nice to look at, but not
great when you have a garden full of twilight biters. :-(

I must admit, I'm actually quite fond of the smell of chlorine. I could sit
outside with the smell of chlorinated water tinkling past me all day, apart
from it's quite close to where a lot of people come out and smoke, so if the
wind's wrong, it's not chlorine you can sniff. it's also not unheard of for
Jeremy Clarkson to be one of those people smoking in that area, and the
temptation of Jeremy and a water feature does occasionally prompt me to
actions that may not be great for my future career.
