The worst tree in our garden is the eucalyptus, it sheds leaves all year round.

My comment was partly based on my experience the other weekend.  I spent a couple of hours or so with the children clearing the front garden of leaves only for hubby to come home and ask what we'd been doing all day.  ::)


One day a guy came home from work, the kids were outside, dirty, still in their pajamas.  He went in the house and there was trash everywhere, the kitchen was a mess with food all over the place, clothes were littered through out the house, the toilet was clogged, towels strewn everywhere.  He walked into the bedroom and his wife was there reading a book.  He looked at her amazed and said "What the heck is going on around here?"  She said "You know how everyday you ask me what I did today, well today I didn't do it."  ;)
