I know that you are all thinking that these two words refer to the work that she has to do at the allotments.. well, they don't!
'Slash & Burn' is the action that bad Beaky does when he knows that she wants to do something sneaky, like capturing me, wrapping me up in a towel and trimming Beaky or toes.. aka claws / talons.
It is mighty painful if you happen to me on the receiving end of Beaky when he in this mode, in fact, I regret to say, a few folk will agree with me when Beaky does his other unpleasant action which is.. crunch.
The two sections of Beaky open and close, quite deliberately, upon a poor unsuspecting finger and it is painful.. to say the least but Slash & Burn, well, it is much worse.
However, it is reserved, you'll be happy to know, only for my mum. She's the only one brave enough (or stupid enough) to attempt Beaky or claw trimmimg with that dreaded file.
There's much scrub-a-dubdub going on here, laundry, housework, trying to find a book to lend to a friend.. then at a certain time, she'll stop and change and get herself up to Charles Street in time for a book talk at the English Speaking Union.
Yes folks, autumn is here and there are all manner of interesting things starting to happen. She's got lots of things to go and look at the British Library. Did you know that it is the 150th anniversary of Alice in Wonderland's publication this year.. yes.. Alice is much older than you think!
So there we are.. I'm going back to dozing on a door.. and she's sorting out a black wash.
Tomorrow she's off to get several pounds of Beets, it's the time of year to make Beet Kvass and Kefir, for Autumn / Fall brings Winter.. brrr.. and with Winter come horrid bugs that people generously give away to you for free but they're unwanted so you've got to make sure your body is able to repel these slimy boarders!
I am crazy-daisy about beets when they're fermented but only get to eat them before bed time, I'm sure you can imagine why! PipPip.
GeeGee Parrot.
