Miss my watering workout!

-

 Pic from this time last year running around getting a suntan and a workout carrying drums of water everywhere to water the phantom planted trees.


Pity we aren't having the same summer this year, it hasnt stopped raining here as I do miss carrying these drums of water, so many people saying to me when they seen me carrying the water can you not get a trolley or a hose or tank on a trailer or something, this is my gym session right here I would say and what a pump you get from carrying these drums with a purpose!


The heatwave we had in spring I was loving the outdoor workouts carrying the water, now I've started doing the farmers walk in the gym with the heavy dumbbells, its an exercise were you carry as heavy a weight as you can handle in each hand and walk for as long as you can, totally mimics my watering of the trees although the feeling of carrying 2 x 30kg drums for half a mile or so then emptying them out on a tree is bliss!


I question my human energy output every day, the gym makes me feel good and all that but wouldn't it be great if we all used that energy for the greater good and with a purpose, can you imagine if our egos were incorporated with helping heal our communities and nature.

You know when I chop wood for my old mate and watch him enjoy the fire after it feels rewarding and its another work out for me swinging the Axe at the same time too.

Many people in the gyms hitting a tyre with hammer for an hour or so, they too could be chopping wood for the elderly and get the same fitness workout too. 


We make healing our world and reviving community spirit an ego thing we will be sorted in no time! 


I bet I can phantom plant more tree than you????

  A bit about me and how I became the phantom planter. I grew up in a Loyalist housing estate in Belfast, my father a Protestant and my mother was a Catholic from Ardyone, that had big complications here in Northern Ireland but I always knew I was a mongrel, a bit different! My dad was a delboy ( a buyer and seller of everything and anything) and from I could walk he had me a mini Delboy, from selling round the doors to off loading lorry loads of bootlegged cigs and booze straight in from Andorra, he had me street trading and playing part in his delboy tricks to help him sell his dodgy goods! I learned fast how to make money and school for me was my business, I had more money than the teachers, my dad would have stocked my bag up at lunchtimes for me with more of his dodgy goods, perfume, tobacco, clothing, all sorts I had in my bag, even sold some of my goods to the teachers! When I left school I was financially embarrassed for a small time, 1000 pupils to me was 1000 people with a po

From Spain to Belfast Phantom Planting!

  Phantom planted another apple tree yesterday with my big glaswegian pal who is over visiting! He couldn't believe the size of the orchard now! Last time we planted a tree was years ago in Spain, 2 plum trees we phantom planted out there, sadly they didn't survive but we had great fun doing it in the lashing rain right outside the Buddhist Stupa as you can see in one of the pics, an offering to the Buddha was my intention! I was at the worst of my addictions back then, used to visit this Stupa a lot for spiritual guidance, really found myself out there, spent a lot of time in Spain soul searching, taking advantage of the cheap winter flights and free stay! I had my last ever pint at the airport after praying at this Stupa, the Buddha responded to my offering I believe! Pretty magical really, faith in a higher power guys, that did it for me, there's more to all this life, more to all this all this world! "Those who don't believe in magic will never find it"..
