    Oh wow, Lily Pilly, it looks gorgeous. I saw you are in Lanarkshire, miles and miles from me in Dordogne. It's poured for the last 2 days, nipped out in a sunny period this evening to take photos before it's all washed away.

    Thank you BM image

    Dreams can come true. My perfect day was always to open the gate into the garden and call my dogs! Came true 8 years ago but hard work and lots of crisis times.  Four winters ago we thiught we would have to give up!

    BM, I'm happy for people to visit if it's a day when I'm free and the garden is looking OK (which often it isn't!). But I live in Dordogne so not very convenient! Why don't you come here for a holiday?

    I think you're getting typically west of Scotland weather BL - you might as well move here! image

    Love your Lutyens bench Lily - I'm a big fan of Ned and his beautiful landscaping.

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
