New garden..

For those who requested it...

Before..

And after..

We found 16 footballs in the wilderness  ;D  :o

I've got some big plans for it, herbaceous borders, a nice big "blokes" shed (Beer fridge, sofa, pool table  etc. ;D ) some raised decking for my table and chairs and many more things.

When it's all done, you're all invited to the barbeque.... Although that will probably be around 2010 !  :)

Nearly long enough for a small aircraft to take off and land (with VTOL  ;) )

Should be good to see when it is complete. I've been helping out on our garden for the past few years and it is getting there  ;D

Looks like you wore out a lawnmower!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   The neighborhood kids are glad to see all their balls. Did you give them back?    Mark

I would have promoted the idea to sell the property back for money towards a new BBQ  ;)
