Day eleven


Mrs S and I have both been out most of today. Why? Because it’s ‘Tiffin Tuesday’. Let me explain. Every Tuesday we meet up with family when we enjoy good company, a few laughs and a lovely meal. We take it in turns to host. So today it was an away day.

When we returned home there was a parcel waiting for me.

I knew what it was, so there were no surprises when I opened it.

My air pump had been promptly delivered.



I attached a 13amp plug, attached the air stones to the hoses, before attaching the other ends to the pump.

Next I sited the pump, dropped the hoses in the pond at either end and plugged in.

Voila! Bubbles galore.

I am very pleased with the quality and performance of the pump, especially at the price. It was reduced by 50%, which again was nice.

  1. Nothing beats having a great discount on an item you need.

  2. So true. I purchased the liner and pump separately from Pondkeeper and enjoyed a 50% discount on each item. Which was nice (To quote The Fast Show)😂

  3. The sound of moving water is very calming.

  4. Water in the garden is very relaxing to watch. We don't have outdoor power but a solar powered fountain nearer to the house could work for us.

  5. I totally agree. Luckily the power point is on the very wall that holds the pond. Initially I wanted solar panel power but I would have had to run a longer cable from the panel to the pump. It would have been ideal as the pump output would have ebbed and flowed as clouds covered the sun, as i discovered at my old pond. Nature’s way of control being so much better.
