Anyone for weeding?

I took up the challenge from Squidoo to write a "weird" lens.
I've written about how I love to weed! I hate housework, but put me in the garden with a hoe and I'm happy as Larry ( whatever that means).

See what you think.by taking a look at "I love weeding. Is that weird?"

Here in the English Lake District we're waiting for the Olympic Torch to come through today. It's going right past us at White Moss House, though for our bit the Olympic Torch will be on a bus, not on foot. I'm told the whole procession is huge and noisy, so I'll be outside with my camera.

With the London 2012 Olympics getting closer, I've picked The best Olympic Souvenirs.. No tat- just a few classy things that I'd like to keep. Here's my favourite

I've always wanted one of those "porch swings"

You know those American films where people sit on a porch that goes round the house, on a wooden swing seat? I've always wanted one of those.
However, we don't have a big porch or veranda at our house!

I also used to love it when I was young when my mother took me round to an old lady's house which had a flowery outside swing seat with a canopy. I'd like one of those too, but the Lake District is too wet to make it really sensible to leave one of these out in the garden. You'd have to cover it every night.

I've just seen this type of thing though on amazon.co.uk. It looks like it will fold up easily at night. This could be just the thing! UK readers can buy it here SWINGING GARDEN HAMMOCK SEAT SWING CHAIR

For children, nothing can beat a swing as a toy. Outdoors, healthy fun. There are swings for all ages of children. I've picked my favourites. What do you think?
