Before & after photos (non-weightloss edition)

I have a cycling-themed before & after sequence. 9 months ago, I came off the bike while riding to work, and it was a bit messy. No other vehicle involved, but I still managed to take skin off the backs of my hands (somehow).

On "stack day":

Stack day + 6:

Stack day + 11:

Stack day + 33:

Even now, 9 months later, I still have slightly visible scars on both hands. This is partly my fault, because after the stack I continued commuting every day because I hate to miss out. This resulted in my hands bleeding during every commute for several weeks. The things I do to continue commuting!

Grim but awesome! Were you making gloves?

AutoCad? Not only is 1973 long gone, I regret to inform you that 1998 has also passed you by.

Exactly, the modern age is all about using a hooky version of SolidWorks!

Farm Terrace allotments 2006 / 2013, cherry tree

Great pics . . . . . . . last year, I planted four cherry trees across the back of my garden . . . I wonder how big they'll grow.

Was this tree a 'dwarf', semi-dwarf or standard type ?

It was supposed to be a dwarf, but it's bigger than me. I don't prune much, lop off crossing branches and give it a minor haircut.

Unfortunately it looks like the site is going to be developed upon next year so I might never find out how big it will get.

I'm expecting a good haul of cherries this year. Plenty of jam!
