    Thanks Pixie:):wave:

    When the new IkEa opened in southampton, I was in shopping heaven:D I will try and take some more pics of what I have done to the house in the last few months I was offline. The major thing was the garden, I had a mate put in a decking patio for me. It looks fab and I am so happy with it!


    I hope this link works....my patio

    thanks hypno:) my friend did an amazing job. I will be getting him back soon to do some more decking over the other side of the garden, what the pic doesnt show is the borders my dad did this week, he built a frame and lifted the borders up and filled with bark, they look really smart but a bit bare atm. I will be buying 3 more fruit trees next year (patio ones) to go with the apple trees I already have in. my dad also made a fab job building the composter, he used leftover decking for the outside so it looks really nice. I will be having a rotary line put in when the other bit of decking is finished which means my long line will go, thank goodness! Next year I will be buying a new shed.

    Its neverending!!!
