Pear trees finally dropped their leaves. I mow/mulched everything in my yard into the lawn. My neighbor was raking his up. I drug a clean dumpster over to his yard and asked him if instead of sending his rakings to the city landfill, he'd consider letting me cover our garden beds with them. I reminded him of the tomatoes, herbs, sweet peppers, okra, etc he gets from my gardens. Immediate agreement! First load dumped.

There had to be a reason. Also glued on makes it easier to pluck its feathers.

You!...... Are a very strange man. Guess that's why I like you. 
@bigpawbullets Strange? In what way?
But thanks for liking me.
I think that I replied this way inlight of my turmoil at having been assaulted by a taxi driver & his taxi being used for intimidation & assault. "Well after my first trip there I don't know if I'm going back to Colac, Victoria?"
To me my reply is logically correct for this site & to mock the tradition of the song's 25\12 gift of the partridge to "her indoors", to use @Petter's favoured expression, to be cooked.
Lucky you. I have a giant Chestnut tree and it's teenager twin. The leaves are supposed to be toxic to some plants and every your I have to pick through the garden plants to remove as many leaves as possible.

I think it's a great idea! Pear leaves are a personal fertilizer for garden beds. The most important thing is that the leaves of the pear tree are not toxic. By the way, I noticed that you have a very beautiful and well-groomed lawn. Tell me, which lawn mower do you use? I want to buy a new lawnmower, but I can't decide on a choice so I would be glad for your help. My wife asked for a long time to repair the garden, and I finally agreed. I have already bought a zoysia grass, so it remains to buy a lawnmower and other tools for the garden.
