After yesterday?
I have to admit that:-
1. We had a Birch, at the bottom of the back Garden. Much further from the house and it'd have been in the School field. It came down in 2013. I'm still not sure I like(d) the idea of its demise.
2. We did, eventually, replace the "Himalayan birch, Betula utilis var. jacquemontii, is a popular and extremely ornamental silver birch. Native to the Himalayas, it is medium-sized with an open habit and pyramidal shape." with/by a "Betula pendula 'Youngii' is a smaller, more weeping alternative to the traditional Silver Birch. Its compact dome shaped form has long, graceful branches that will eventually sweep the ground, making it a spectacular tree for smaller spaces that might not be able to house one of the larger Birches."
Currently I can gaze over its head, and wondering how much bigger I'll get to see it. AND How the great grey green greasy Limpopo a "Weeping" Tree gets taller? I'll maybe illustrate in the near future.

The extra? For my record. I think I got a cheap variety of "Fitness Tracker" OR, as I call it my "Stepometer" after Alice "went". Sometime, I think last week, I managed to accidentally snap off the charging "Spur" - Middle pic.
The item itself looks suspiciously like one of the Apple© stable, even down to strap & fastener; it's ultimate Achilles Heel is that the wee thing to fasten it kept snapping. Every time I requested one the sent a complete "Watch" - I gave up at three and have since used a Heath Robinson - much sturdier/longer lasting.
;¬) See bottom pic.
The point of all this waffle? To remind me when I took Watch # 2 into service.
