  • Brief update- spent all day in the garden and have been knocking into shape. The fence requires a lot more work than i previously thought, so i am off to a wood reclamation yard in the next town tomorrow, to see if i can source the wood more cheaply. It will be a bit more graft but worth it in the end.
    Bushes and trees all trimmed back, that was a job and a half- but it is looking more respectable now. I found a little nest with 3 eggs in it, when i was happily lopping away at the bushes- i hope the mother comes back :(

    Three lawns all mowed, just need to sort out the borders where the bushes had grown over.
    The path needs a bit of work as well so that will be cementing in tomorrow, should be a 5 min job and something else to tick off the list.

    Frogs being quickly eaten i reckon, quite a few to go though.

    Yep- I need to keep on top of it all otherwise it becomes a massive job. I really didn't do a lot of gardening last year and that has showed this year, so will just keep on chipping away at it.:D It is beginning to look something like now, which i am pleased about.
