Good evening.
I recorded a short video this morning about what I put in my porridge . I mix it up in the Kenwood and store it in a plastic airtight tub.
Porridge is a healthy way to start the day. Today I added frozen strawberries and blueberries, and half a banana.
I decided to get the earlier bus to town, and walk home. Mickey went straight back to bed after his breakfast and he was still there when I arrived back. He is doing really well for his 19 years. Since the vet visit a couple of months ago his appetite is back to normal. He is eating more food than ever now, and his coat is looking glossy. He did have some big clumps of fur on his back but they have gone now. Gradually I carefully trimmed bits off them. He is such a loving cat, and has settled in nicely with Oscar, though Mayze doesn't like either of the boys.
I got the 11.30 bus to town. It was my lucky day, I found a £1 coin on the ground, so I put it towards the cost of a Magnum ice cream at the Arts Centre.
On the way back I walked through the Industrial Estate for a change. There was litter everywhere, what a disgusting mess. I came across these two lorries, they had just unloaded at a factory. The project manager, Noah, was onsite so I had a chat with him. Colletts are the bees knees where heavy haulage is concerned. Take a look at the video on their web site. How to move a 145 ton load.
My walk back took me through the turf fields again. I saw this strange contraption go in a dead straight line across the middle of two fields. When it got to the end it turned round and went back. I know you can get robots to mow the lawn but I don't think this was cutting the grass. They usually use tractors to do that job. Very strange.
When I got back I took Billy for a walk. I couldn't let him down could I. He loves his walks.
Now I have to stop typing to make room for Mayze who is waiting for a cuddle. Thanks for popping in. Toodle pip. ilona
Hi Ilona, John here. I did an image search on google and it came up with this:
ReplyDelete"The image shows an ECHO Robotics commercial turf mower, which is a type of robotic lawnmower designed for large areas like sports fields or golf courses. These mowers operate autonomously within a defined area. They are controlled and monitored via a mobile app or online portal. The mowers use a mulching function, which finely grinds the grass clippings and distributes them on the lawn as a natural fertilizer. ECHO Robotics also produces robotic ball pickers for golf ranges that can work in conjunction with the mowers."
WOW, that's really interesting. I spotted it from a distance as I entered a field. I thought what the heck is that over there. I walk along the edges of the turf fields and thought I might get into trouble if it has a camera on it and someone sees me. There was a gap between the two fields and it seemed to have difficulty finding it's way over the bumpy bit. It hesitated and changed direction, then when it got through it carried on across the second field. I was fascinated by it. It felt like I was taking it a walk. How clever to grind up the cuttings. I must say the turf is smooth like velvet. By the way, which John are you?
