Thanks for the compliments on pics. Nice to see other pics too, so nice to get an idea of what we are all talking about. Lizzie, wish I was slimmer but I think I have just 'upsized' my shorts. Am entered in a big race on June 14th so have to really get focused, just hoping all this gardening is building up my stamina, certainly don't ache this much after a run so it must be doing something.
Feeling a little anxious at the moment too as the previous owners of the house are visiting from UK on Friday, not bothered about the house at all, we haven't done anything too drastic but the garden was absolutely her passion and it has changed quite a lot. Have probably thrown out a few 'babies with the bathwater', definitely found more plant labels than plants and have cut back some shrubs very hard just to get them under some sort of control and they haven't quite bounced back yet. Unfortunately the spring months between us buying the house and moving in meant things got carried away and also I think the garden was just getting a bit out of control before we bought it. Hope she has a good imagination.
Must get out there and see what difference I can make in 48 hours.
Good day to all.

He's on vet food only and we are starting to test him on a list of foods to discover what is upsetting him.
So far chicken is looking good, that's a start as he loves his little treat every day, it will take time to go through the entire list so it's a long haul main thing is he's happy now

Don't worry about previous owners DD, it's your baby now
Your plans, your hard work and your way
Morning all.
Sunny but cold here.
Amusing myself in garden today, trying to pretend I am Christopher Lloyd.
OH has a job interview today, would be great if she gets it, more money for me to spend.
When you don't even know who's in the team
S.Yorkshire/Derbyshire border
DD, i would be nervous too, but im sure the previous owner will be very impressed and pleased you have put so much effort into the garden
Really do need to go and get ready now!
