Bouncing back

 One of the dispiriting things that I think that councils always do wrong is spending on the future. And for me that is children. Our local parks are barely adequate and really do need much more investment. It would be wonderful to see great play equipment and plenty for children to do rather than the money wasted on yet another idiotic scheme for cyclists.

Stone me

 I previously painted some stones and put the names of the trees/bushes/plants on. I used exterior primer/undercoat then gloss paint but unless they were very sheltered, they have not weathered very well at all.

So now I am trying with acrylic paint and covering with PVA. there is some PVA on the sandstones and it has not come off since it was spilt there quite a few years ago, so let's see.
