It sounds like I've missed a few coincidences due to my back breaking labouring in the garden. As for Ell and her ducks - it isn't the way she lines them up that worries me, it is the way she shoots them.

johnmacnab,
it could indeed be a message from the ether.. we've been noticing more than a few coincidences around the blog places in the last few days.
Sounds like Ell's got all her ducks in a row for winter projects.

You are very observant, mneme. For months now, after a computer crash, I've had bloggers complain that any email they sent me just bounced back. We, that's me and my electronic genius of a partner, couldn't figure it out, because our server kept saying the name was taken. It was Ell who had a sudden thought about the spelling and phoned them up. They had it under johnmacnab, but how it happened they have no idea. The irony is that John Buchan's heroes went under the pseudonym of John MacNab and not John McNab. Maybe it was a message from the other side.
I think all the outside work is now done. Ell is now wandering around inside the house and taking notes and measurements.

Johnmacnab, it's obviously keeping you fit as well as busy...
and did you just change the spelling in your name? I wasn't sure it if was only my grey matter having trouble remembering. This is a nice picture of winter gardening.. how much more is there to do before it's prettily under snow?
