  • A new shed would be very acceptable. image

  • Birdyboots image  there's a song by the band Travis which goes 'Why does it always rain on me?  Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?'

    As it almost always starts raining when OH gets his bike out of the garage, it's his theme song.

    Wow - they are beautiful Fidget - both natural and contemporary - amazing pieces of sculpture. Not surprised you're jumping up and down. image

    Happy Christmas!!!

  • Dove from above - Thanks for clearing up the mystery.  I've got it now Edd.  I clearly need to get with-it and gen up on my music, and yes Edd, I probably did lie when I was seventeen.   Between that and living in Wales I'm obviously doomed, I'll order new wellies quick smart - it's all my own fault.  I'll never tell another lie.  image

    fidgetbones - I love, love, love those dandelions, I'd be thrilled as well.  How big are they?  image

    The stems are 2 metres and the heads about 60cm across.  Final position is not decided yet.

     I must move that orange bucket. They catch the sun here. Even more so if I trim a buddleia and rose in the hedge line.

    To be so large and so delicate is a tribute to the designer and builder. True artists. Good for you fidget. If there are any seedlings could you let me have one?imageimage
