A day watering trees.

-

  Was out and about watering trees from 6am yesterday morning. Didnt get finished up until about 6pm last night. Was watering on and off constantly all day in between wheeling and dealing my Buddha Beds Luxury mattresses.


I have trees all over South Belfast and have been going around watering the trees thats been planted in the past year or 2.

There is no rain forecast for another week at least and with the weather being so hot its time to keep on top of things and help the trees thrive.

Its also good to go around and check on the trees too. Sure what else would you want to be doing on a nice hot sunny day.


Spent a few hours late afternoon in our new Lisnabreeny Community Orchard, tops off, barefooted tending to the trees. I was in the heavenly realm, just me, wee betty and the trees.


I also love to make watering the trees a workout too. Many people say I should get a trolley or a hose or something to make it easier, not for me.

I love the pump it gives me carrying 2 x 25 litre drums over a hundred metres or so to water the trees. Best forearm and trap workout you'll get.


I tried to do a video of me doing it but it didnt workout that well. I would love to do more videos telling you all what I get up too but I dont have time. I also dont have time for video editing and I prefer to do most things on my own so never have anyone to camera me. 

Whats most important for me is my connection with nature and staying true to myself. 

I love to write more than making videos. Writing for me is special, its creative and practice for me when I'm older. In my old age I intend to write books and lots of them.

Writing for me also feels a lot less egotistical. Its so easy to get carried away with our egos on these social media sites.


"The only thing harder than climbing Mount Everest, is climbing it and not telling anyone".


If there was no social media would you still do what you do? OR if you were the last person in the world would you still do what you do?


Future generations are going to look back at us one day saying, they're world was being destroyed around them and most choose to use this amazing global platform of connection to prance about like clowns at a circus. 


We are consuming too much and not returning. 


My symbiotic connection with mother nature is the most important thing for me. 

Planting trees is my way of leveling up. 


I challenge you all to phantom plant a tree today. 


Peace and love 


The Phantom Planter

  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 ...

 From I've been saying that I'm on Onlyfans I've a lost a few hundred followers on my main phantom planter Facebook page. And the posts on it have a attracted many negative comments from people who seemed to know alot about life story and phantom planting antics, these are people that have been reading all my previous posts in depth and have never commented once before as I do read nearly all the comments and show my gratitude and if its a negative comment I just give them a hug. But it just shows you how many people are reading your posts with venom, just waiting until you put a foot wrong then give off. Then they announce they're departure commenting "Unfollowed." Look guys I'm really not going to lose any sleep over it and its certainly not going to distract me from my mission and soul purpose. I very rarely give my attention to negative comments on here or even get in a debate with. I would much rather give my energy and attention to people who are sup...

Buddha Beds!!!

 Good morning guys, most of you have probably seen my disheartened post the other day about me feeling a bit down on the financial side of things to do with the Phantom Planter. I've been trying for so long now to earn a decent living from it to help fuel my passion in what I'm doing. There's nothing more I'd love to be doing than going round phantom planting fruit trees and maintaining them, getting my free fruit tree map app all updated and promoting it also so everyone can have free fresh fruit. I also have plans for my Oak Grove museum and several other community and nature projects I had on my mind. But for the past while I've been spending hours every day doing all sorts of work to do with the phantom planter and It's always been in the back of my head at times, what am I doing?? As most of you know I've been donated a small plot of land and I'm intending on building a cabin on it and I need money to do this. I'm living in a rotted rented cabin...
