Evening all, back from weekend with son. Saw some of you had sent garden pics. Like looking at people's pics. Here's some of my garden last spring, gives me hope. Looks nothing like this at the moment - it's a brown and depressing mess!
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Think I sent this one before, couldn't find the one I wanted to send. Now I have 6 grandchildren computer is getting overloaded with photos. Need to do something about it.

A bright day forecast, and considerably warmer tomorrow. On the Sky News weather forecast this morning, they actually said 'tomorrow will be a good day for you all to get out in your gardens'.
More slab moving, more bamboo moving, more planting out planned.
But my garden is not a prison camp, with hard labour. I'll be knocking off around lunch time, and spending the afternoon in the deckchair.

Potting on done creating room for seeds
Planting in of couple plants I moved
Sart seed sowing
Possible a tad ambitious
I'd like to get pergola painted too but pushing it .... volunteers welcome
Lizzies, what a lovely garden! I have got loads of photos on my PC but am putting a lot of them onto discs. I love looking at other peoples gardens, do quite a lot of open garden visits during the year, always learn such a lot and get some good ideas.
Don't over do it Bunny, be like Gary and have a rest this afternoon, I doubt I'll be able to carry on all day, but once you get started it's difficult to stop.
I spent all day in the garden yesterday just pruning back the overgrown Ivy, I have to dig out around 10 trees aswell (all self seeded and in the worst possible places). Then its digging out a new curved border roughly 7ft by 70ft and preparing a dead lawn (under shade of a tree) for some new grass seed. And (he says excitedly) picking up my new petrol mower today)..

Work today, but I might manage a half hour's digging the allotment on my way home now the evenings are getting lighter.
