Collecting Acorns

Acorn Collecting in October
Around the end of October, all the ripened Acorns, all fall off the trees at once.  This is the best time to collect them, before the Squirrels get there first. 


Acorns can be used for planting in sites, where the competing vegetation is low growing or for planting in pots or nursery beds.


It is good to make a day of it and get other people involved, simply because that means that I will collect more Acorns. 


Acorns will die if dried out, also if kept in plastic bag.  Untill you are ready to plant them; throw them on some wet garden soil, or store them in wet leaves.
The new Blogger App
This blog was due for an October release. But sadly my computer has been experiencing technical difficulties.


Two days ago, I discovered that there is actually a 'Blogger app', which I can use on my mobile phone.  So now I can continue blogging, despite my inoperational PC.  
The app is not as good as on a the PC, there is far less you can do, but at least it works.  In fact now I'm just editing it, some days later, on my mate's computer.


In future (until I get my PC back); I will use the blogger app to upload photos and text to my posts, but I will only publish them in drafts, untill such a time as I have the opportunity to go over them properly, with a computer.


Fair play to the blogger app, though.
Don't want to diss it, or anything like that.
It has made blogging that much more convenient and I can now; get my basic messages out there, directly from site and then just neaten them up later.
