Speaking of my tree...
Last week I had to clear the driveway of leaves, the reason being that we were getting a new living room carpet fitted the next day, and the fitters would probably have to lay it out on the drive to cut it before bringing it in (as it turned out, it was simpler just to size it in the room. Bah). Now, exactly a week ago our tree was still in full leaf - The leaves on our drive were from our neighbour's tree as well as the trees across the road (Yes, we're a row of houses on one side of a road leading up a hill with a pretty crappy forest on the other side).
So I swept and bagged those leaves, using a hosepipe to clear the driveway of the leaves that were far too stuck to sweep up. Took a couple of hours, despite the small size of our driveway. Otherwise, we now had a perfectly clear stretch of concrete to call our own.
And now, one week later, our tree decided to shed its load across the driveway and lawn :angry:

When in mortal danger,
When beset by doubt,
Run in little circles,
Wave your arms and shout.
