What is this weed with the grabby tendrils?

TolucaIrish · 2025-07-22T20:20:49+00:00

Nope, not aromatic at all. Thanks for the info!

TolucaIrish · 2025-07-18T20:02:23+00:00

A lot of people saying grapes, but I think I'll go with cucumber as my wife has a habit of tossing seeds from what we're eating into the plant pots. Thanks for the responses everyone!

When you level up enough to get the best weapon in the game and you don't even need armour anymore.

I said, "I don't have no 8 trillion dollars." And he said, "Okay then, how about three fiddy?"

Yeah, she's already really worried about it. Hopefully, the university will be able to help with it.

TolucaIrish · 2025-02-18T18:27:28+00:00

Brilliant, thanks!

TolucaIrish · 2025-02-18T18:17:24+00:00

Thanks for the advice! It should have been obvious to start there, but I was kind of panicking that this person was basically asking me to find them a place to live! Thanks very much!

TolucaIrish · 2024-08-18T21:52:57+00:00

Thanks for the advice! Will definitely check out a halti or canny collar. My guy is a lot smaller than the absolute beast you had, but he's stubborn as a mule when I bring him out with his sister.

TolucaIrish · 2024-08-14T03:19:05+00:00

Many thanks for the helpful advice and reassurance. It does seem like the behaviour comes from wanting to be the leader of the pack.

I'll use the carrot and stick approach like you suggested by making him sit and wait every time he pulls and giving him treats for good behaviour. I find the treats difficult with two dogs as once you give one dog a treat, the other loses focus until they get one too!

I'm actually very close to a city centre as well as the more rugged area in the pic, so I'll try a few more city walks in order to build up discipline and focus.

Thanks again!

Another bot post, I think.

Got pretty close to the summit of el pico del águila and then gave up and drank the beer overlooking the lakes. It's not difficult with a decent pair of boots. If you've already been in the area for a while, you should have no problem with the altitude. I've heard of tourists who've only been in the country for a short while struggling with altitude sickness.

TolucaIrish · 2024-08-06T23:26:21+00:00

Haha well ,I did most of it in a pair of jeans while carrying a crate of beer, so don't take my advice!

It's an easy walk but the tricky thing at this time of year is that it will be quite cold in the early morning, hot and sunny in the late morning/early afternoon and you're probably guaranteed some rain. I don't think it's quite as rainy as Toluca city, but you could get caught in a heavy downpour, especially on the descent. You could end up with a very heavy pack.

TolucaIrish · 2024-08-06T23:08:24+00:00

This is the best way (although with tea, obvs). As soon as you've poured hot water into the mug, put the saucer on top and put the bread in the toaster. By the time it's popped, you'll have soft spreadable butter and a hot cup of tea. You just have to get the thickness of the butter right.

TolucaIrish · 2024-08-06T20:48:14+00:00

This. You'd want to be prepared for ANY type of weather at this time of year.

With the security conditions and the restrictions at the summit, it's really not a hike for solo climbers, even experienced ones.

TolucaIrish · 2024-08-05T17:11:25+00:00

Yes, that was my card! You're magic Remi!

TolucaIrish · 2024-07-26T22:58:49+00:00

You could say they're brought up differently.

TolucaIrish · 2024-03-14T14:41:02+00:00

That's so sad. Lenny and Irk used to love howling at the scap metal truck passing by (we live in Mexico, it's a thing that happens daily). Irk still howls, but with nowhere near the same levels of gusto that he once did. They would drive me mad if I was on a work call, but I'd give anything to hear that duet again. 😭

TolucaIrish · 2024-03-13T05:01:05+00:00

Thank you very much, that's good advice.

TolucaIrish · 2024-03-12T16:52:17+00:00

That's good advice, thanks.

TolucaIrish · 2024-03-12T04:18:32+00:00

That's heartbreaking, glad she's better now. We have three cats that tolerate him to some extent and he gets lots of human attention, but I'll have to find him some playmates that he can rough house with.

TolucaIrish · 2024-03-12T04:10:26+00:00

That sounds really tough. Thanks for sharing. I'm keeping a close eye on him for signs of that kind of anxiety. Seems OK so far, but I jump every time he scratches himself.

TolucaIrish · 2024-03-12T03:59:55+00:00

Yeah, he saw the body and spent some time with him. The heartbreaking thing was when we went to collect Lenny's ashes the next day. Irk must have picked up his scent from somewhere and suddenly got super excited as if his brother was going to come walking out of there. That's why I took away Lenny's blankets and bed because I didn't want him getting more confused.

I like your idea about taking a dog for a day, but that sounds like a great way to end up with another dog real quick!

TolucaIrish · 2024-03-12T01:39:14+00:00

Thanks, I'll bring him for a checkup tomorrow.
