Went to Trees for life this morning and picked up a bunch of trees from their excess stock to get our planting really started.

That should keep us busy for the weekend!

Took a couple of snaps of the back of the Forester filled with them.

Not sure how we're going to get all of the family home tonight, since trees are taking up the whole car.

Shockdoctor - http://www.shockdoctor.com have released a new product that can helps remove helmets in the advent of a serious accident.

Last Sunday I cutup a small tank with the angle grinder to make three small garden beds. Check them out in these photos.

They did the initial flushing last week, and finished it off today.

These shots are from the weekend.

Today i needed to get a list of files changed within a certain range of svn commits for ftp'ing across to a server and knocked up a quick bash script to do it. Maybe it will help someone else in the future.

for i in `seq 7 30`; do svn log -v -r $i | grep \/ | cut -d' ' -f5; done | sort | uniq -c
