April 5th 2015 - Easter Sunday
Happy Easter to all, whether you believe the church teachings that Easter is linked to the resurecction of Jesus or if you follow the Pagan/Wiccan ways and believe that Easter is linked to Ostara and the fertitilty Goddess Eostre or if you just enjoy the weekend off work, I hope that you have a nice day and don't eat too much chocolate and up ill.
I have spent the day getting back into my Family Tree thanks to a conversation with a friend yesterday who said about trying to find her family but having no luck. I said I would help her if she could send me all info she knew, which isn't much, but there is enough to make a start. As I was looking for 1 of her rellies I realised that I could actually view records on the site (something i've not been able to do in ages) so I started trying to sort the 1000+ hints that I have on my tree. And the pin link is right for what happens.
Sadly I have hit a wall on my friends tree but hopefully we can sort this if we can get a copy of the marriage cert as this *should* tell us which of the 2 charles is the father!

February 16th 2015 - Tree stump removal
February 16th 2015 - Tree stump removal
I am in the process of trying to sort out the last part of my garden where I want the decking to go. But this is going to be a big task as I need to dig out soil. And in part of where I want it there are some old pine tree stumps that need removing.
I found this artical on Pinterest about how to remove tree stumps with the use of Epsom Salts. I'm not sure if it actually works or if its a hoax. But we bought a bag of Epsom Salts last week to try it, if it doesn't work we have only wasted £2.99.
Hubby drilled holes in the tree stumps as deep as his drill bit would allow, I filled them with Epsom Salt and then a tiny bit of water and left them. It says that you may need to re-apply salt after a few days and again each week as it can take upto 2months for the stumps to rot as the salt absorbs the water from the tree.
Fingers crossed it does work as I really need the stumps gone. They were cut as low to ground as we could do without damaging the saw.
