Tumbleweed Game 12 - CURRENT ACTIVE GAME

As the previous Tumbleweed game had been running for over ten-and-a-half years, I thought it a good idea to end it, archive it, and start again.
So, as of the timestamp of this post, game 12 is GO!

The regular bell is at The Repair Shop. I’m having to borrow three from my old Grandfather’s clock…

You're not doing very well here, are you?
To claim points, a post must be made to the game thread in this format:
For weed claims: "x point weed", "x weed", "x weeds", "x points";
For bell claims: "x bells". Bells may also be claimed by typing "Clang" once for each bell claimed (so three bells would be claimed by typing "Clang, clang, clang").
Although now I've spotted a loophole in the rules that needs closing.

Just for the sake of clarity, the scores in this game so far are:
1 - greatkingrat - 5 points
2 - RobbieM - minus 250 points (for an invalid bell claim of 225 points, and an invalid weed claim of 25 points)
