Having a wonderful day in the garden with family and friends. Good food. Cold beer. Chasing frogs. Making musical instruments out of old gas drums. Painting the gas drums. Playing music. Feeding snails to the chickens. Using scary power tools with lots of spitznsparken. Nice day.

Hullo - I recognise that face :)
Glad you've had a fantabulistic day.

I read that as 'feeding snails to the children', and I was not surprised!

Lindsey, you're not that far off the mark: Rebecca came into the house with a paper plate full of 'pet snails'. There were 5 to start off with. I'm not sure where they all are now....
what kind of instrument do you make from a gas drum?
It was a sort of marimba. Guy cut "U" shapes into the steel. When struck they rang in different tones. We filed the shapes to tune them. It made a very pleasing sound, somewhere between a steel drum and a church bell.
sweet! thanks for the response. I may have to snag one the next time I see one laying around and try that myself.
