The patchouli plays an important role keeping it smell classy and mature and fresh enough for spring.

Patchouli has some nice note when it has worn off a lot or been washed off...

If you are really into scents i can highly reccommend this.

at one point i had bought a couple of natural oils and essences to make my own signature scent. i still have half a bottle somewhere, i need to check it out now haha.
it was pretty rough smelling though, i should have known to also order some other chemical compounds and not only natural essences. theres a bunch of stuff that can make the notes blend better or accentuate one or the other, act as a filler etc.
it was big fun though :)

It's great fun.

with the kit you can start to recognice notes in various scents, like molecule 1 has iso e super in it.

My son keeps blending about 10 of them together.

I'm hoping he can create the next social media scent sensation and i can retire to Ganja bikini paradise.

i know people create lavendar essential oil from people's flowers in the summer in a similar way that you can take your apples for pressing.

Farm work?
yeah man , prep for the season . i gave my friend the winter off to look within himself and find the power of the leaf

this afternoon, when he returns from his working day , we have a 20 m mound of rubble to cover over. it houses millions of seeds of this type of wild thistle i forget the name of. the seeds it produces damage and etch onto anything they land on , when the seeds are activley spreading in early summer... they caused carnage. the seeds land on a plant , by way of wind the seed stick

we have to move a load of rocks boulders, sheet it over and rope it over and pile rocks all over it too

them thistle will not annoy me again

How nice of you. Shiva82 - leaf bearer

Wow, at least you'll be warm. It's bloody freezing outside.

A large grey mound of type 1 aggregate is a nightmare in itself, nevermind the thistles.

Today is the last day i have the scaffolding up so i should get up there and do something.

I can't feel my toes yet however.

The external wall of the house bows quite badly at the top which means the coping tiles drip onto the wall when it rains.

I need to grind some of the wall away to bodge it as it has moss growing but it is only accessible from in between the scaffolding.

I'm both nervous and excited but a part of me just cant be bothered.

i don't know how you guys do it. roofing is too hardcore for me . i do have to go on the odd roof time to time and i always shit myself. i feel safe working off a ladder 3 stories up for some reason, but not stood up on planks at that height . and walking up the roof ,even with roof ladders, on old tiles that may break , be wet, or icy . it always makes me over think

i'm content with a few square metres of land , waking up at 7 am the earliest and sheeting over mounds of land with a landowner
