Thanks for the kind words Gents. I enjoy putting these together as it challenges me plus gives more meaning to the diary/planner. The updated version is attached and any feedback is welcome.

Two more weeks 'til I can venture outside
Must resist the urge and doctors orders abide
Home alone, in the dark, just me and "the box"
Daytime TV is crap, left wing and merely Vox Pop

Time to crank up the solar heating in the pool
And service the cleaner and check balances too
Chlorine and PH are in the right range
Pool cover comes off and the landscape doth change.

Under the pergola gets a good pressure wash
The water goes everywhere, with a splish and a splosh
Wash away the Winter crud, begone is the mess
My Son's done a great job, with him I am blessed

The lawn plan has changed, with nothing to be done
This weekend is for family and time in the sun
Had planned to top dress after a scalp or low mow
My best laid ideas gone the way of the Dodo

I eagerly look forward to soon tending my turf
I'll be happy again, as cheery as a Smurf
Won't be long now till my mending is done
To once again venture out in the great Aussie sun

Cheers,
TC.
