I really like this gardening tool. It's basically pruning shears on a telescopic handle, which you can cut with by pulling on that rope. I can cut branches 2 meter above my head with this toy. Might need one of 3 or 4 meter in the future, because the tree's a bit higher than I can reach currently.

But at least I've managed to trim off a lot of branches which were sticking out of the tree haphazardly. I'm also going to take a well-deserved shower because it's a lot hotter than I expected. A bit too hot to work, but I managed to do most of the job in the shadow which was nice.

I think I'm going to try out those trimming tools today that I borrow from my dad. Time to tame that tree with the murder needles!

@rastinza @freemo Drilling? Isn't that noisy?!

@freemo That said, I just opened my backdoor as it's a gorgeous weather. My backyard is a closed and locked enclosure, so it's unlikely for anyone to just walk in. They'd have to climb the fences at the neighbours first, which is a lot of effort for a simple burglary.

@rastinza

@rastinza @freemo Forcing the lock can be hampered fairly easily with anti-burglar strips along the door frame (metal strips that makes it bloody hard to try to wiggle at the lock on the edges).

@freemo That might be your experience, but that won't be the case for everybody. I'd keep my front door locked even when I'm at home. (Being deaf is another factor to keep in mind). Though with our front doors you'd need to go through some considerable effort to keep it unlocked as they're all auto-locking, unlike most American front doors I've encountered.

And window breaking isn't common around here. It's a noisy act, you don't want to attract attention like that. Most of our front doors have large windows.

@Bosbesje@mastodon.nl Huh, waarom is er een VVD-gozer aan het roer als dat de 7e partij is volgens de laatste gemeenteraadsverkiezingen?

Ik zal politiek nooit begrijpen.

@Bosbesje@mastodon.nl @StroomAfwaarts
Waarom geen Groningse mosterd eigenlijk?

@freemo At least the deliveryperson did place it in a spot where it wasn't immediately seen, so yeah, ok good. But still, permission and all that, yadda yadda.

And I'd be really freaked out if they managed to walk into my house and leave it on my table...

Wtf, don't you lock your stuff when you're going out?!

@freemo It is *not* the norm here. Definitely not without permission.

At least this is the first time this has ever happened to me. Maybe it depends on the delivery company, but I'm now less likely to choose this one out of a list.

@freemo They could've delivered at my neighbours? That's always been an option. Or a central deposit I could get it from if need be if re-delivery next day wasn't an option either.

Leaving it behind unattended requires permission. I never gave that.

@Bosbesje@mastodon.nl To be honest, ik weet niet eens hoe onze huidige burgermeester heet. 😅 Ik stem niet op een burgermeester, ik stem op partijen.

@Bosbesje@mastodon.nl Dat was Christoph Bernhard von Galen, een bisschop van Muenster en een Duits krijgsheer. Hij heet Bommen Berend omdat hij een paar steden belegerde, inclusief Groningen.

@rafaelcaricio I want to leave this club!

@Bosbesje@mastodon.nl @hvangalen

Berend Boertje ging uit tuffen,
Met zijn trekker naar Stroe puffen,
De weg was rechts,
De weg was rechts,
Nooit kwam Berend Boertje weer terecht?

@WandelStock@mastodon.art ... brothers? Sooo... did they answer that interviewer with something like 'Well.. he got born and there we are, best buds for life!'? :P

First time this happened to me... package left under the bush next to my front door. Gave the delivery company a negative review since this is not an action I want to encourage in the future.

@Bosbesje@mastodon.nl Je zou willen dat je zo een coole burgermeester had. 😂

@StroomAfwaarts Precies.

Maar dan is er ook een stroming binnen de audiologisten- en artsenkring die beweert dat als een kind CI heeft, ze zoveel moeten leren praten en vooral niet moeten gebaren.

Alsof gebaren het praten cancelt. Idioot gewoon.

What the hell have I been watching? 😂

Bommen Berend better become a huge event this year to justify this silly video!
