Going to be embarking on a garden overhaul next weekend. So i'm looking for some ideas.

I know that i'll be building a vegetable patch and a BBQ. We'll possibly be erecting a green house (handed down from her dead grandfather).

So show me yours and i'll show you mine.

That's it at some point last year, probably about June/July given the size of the stuff in the greenhouse

This will turn into a Willy waving competition soon.

Mr log stack and Mr stone will be along any time soon. God I hate them. 😀

warton, I don't know why but your post made me laugh so much that I had to wipe the tears from my eyes. Silly really, because it wasn't, on the face of it, [i]that[/i] funny, it just appealed to my childish humour. Anyway thanks, best laugh of the day so far 8)

We moved 3 doors along to get our garden. It's fantastic for the kids to play in (and ride their bikes around) but it's bloody hard work to maintain and I've conceded defeat this year and agreed to get a gardener to at least come and mow the lawn and keep the weeds at bay. Bought a ride on mower when we first moved in which is quite good fun, but it can still take a couple of hours to mow if I don't keep on top of it.

The giant Yukka didn't survive the snow sadly but has started growing again this. Despite being a cottage garden, I quite liked how incongruous a giant palm tree looked!

and a quick lap when I was testing my GoPro!

Just found this pic of how much grass you get when you don't mow for 3 weeks in summer!
