Nik, No 3 son, has a "budding" business as lnadscape gardener, and uses Chaos Cottage as his base.
At the moment, he is working on quite a large garden, and as it is unoccupied, and in an area where anything is likely to disappear if it ain't nailed down :( , he has just had delivered here so 40 trees, all in containers, which he will take to the job as he is planting them.
This has sent Thor into a state of ecstasy - "ho ho ho - look at all these trees - can I pee on them all - oh oh, just a little for each, or I won't be able to get round them all - better go back & get The Boy Beau" -= he rushes back to the house - goes to the Utility Room and BARKS at the door - so we let Beau out, he "whispers" in Beau's ear - and off they rush - one starting at one end of the line, one at the other, very carefully, squirting each one, til they meet in the middle. They then jump around a bit - change places - Beau to Thor's end, Thor to Beau's end - and start again!
If only I had realised that all I needed to keep them happy was 40 trees in pots.........

Fortunately for the trees, they are in BIG containers - nearly dustbin size - so the trees themselves are safe :)
As for the "budding" business - I just hope it doesn't take too long to get established & puts down its own roots ....
