Dont you think have got enough on around here?! I did take up the 'proper' wax polish & old dusters for daughter to use on the wooden furniture that she had in storage. Sprays good enough around here.
Forgot- our letterbox fell apart last night! So as lots of plants/cuttings in the porch, which I dont want to lose, it now has a 'flap' of bubblewrap on the inside. Postie laughed, but still got things through ok. Somewhere, not sure where, OH & me have seen the other half of the letterbox. Cant find it though. OH was planning to canabilise it to at least have 1 complete flap. J.
Glorious sun round the front jo. I already have a patio set round the back like Bjays, small wooden one, but I like to sit out the front and neighbour watch!
Bed's fixed, but he's not sure how long for. I just have to sleep standing up now as if I sit on it it may collapse again
Becks if I remember it is long and narrow so if you do what Bunny said it would take away that 'long' feel and you could neighbour watch behind your flowers without any one seeing. Include a few small shrubs for interest and greenness in winter. What about putting the bench at a slight angle that would also give it more'width' feel. R ather than right underneath the window.
Thinking about it put it all slightly at an angle that would make it seem less narrow as well.
Our front is sunny too. Kitchen at the front of the house, but side of extended garage blocks a lot of the 'view'. We also have an alleyway to one side. Fence lowish, so sitting out there would be like a goldfish bowl. Not me. I go & sit in the back & annoy my neighbour instead! Her decision to keep the joint fence low......
Daughter's new place has a very sunny back patio. Fences not too high further down the garden, so 1 neighbour's garden/workshop well in view from back room/patio. Eventually she plans to have the 'garage demolished. It's raised up, but the ground beneath is lower than the patio, so she may have a sunken seating are there J.

Nowhere around the back Becks? or is the sun better at your front? J.

Then a nice little circle lawn and lots for cottage garden planting :
I did think of concreting it in.
I will be taking 6 square slabs up, and repositioning them where I want it to go.
