This is such a first world minor problem, but any advice on dealing with next door's tree? Its shed so many leaves and bark in the past 6 weeks that it would easily take 2 full green bins to fill and not only can I not be arsed doing the clean up it just feels a tad unfair. The owner of the tree is a nice old guy so I don't want to put him out with this issue, but we're at the point of needing to either pay someone or sweep it all ourselves on to a public road which feels wrong. Ideas other than what I already have?

At least discuss it with him. Could you get it cut back to the fence line?

So the tv show Severance season 2 is finally here. It’s being released weekly instead of all at once, so I was debating with myself whether I wait for it to be all available to binge it, or watch week by week. Have decided I can’t wait and just watched the first episode. Worth it. It’s masterful how they can put so many discombobulating elements into it.

I really need to go to QVM one of these days and stock up on those delicious African ready made meals. Their fish stew I had a few years ago... I can still taste it! 🤤

Bike service time. Get this sorted and I might do a few days to the new job on the bike. It will be a 30km round trip instead of each way

Kinda crazy it's almost month 2 of the year. I, for one, hope we maintain this velocity

That Vukic tennis match was absolutely crazy. My nerves are shot. Time for bed.
