    Pretty good handyman aren't you James image

    Thanks for the pics makes it so much easier to visualize. Think you have given yourself enough work to keep you going for a very long time. Brilliant watching it all changing bit by bit. 

     

  • Lovely garden and great blog.  Still following you James!

  • Hello all it’s quite a dry day today in my garden so I thought I would cut some ivy down today.

    So I tipped all my garden waste with the aid of my wife car. So I started with a chain saw i bought from ebay (bargain of the month) yes I said chain saw paid £20.00 for it.

    I’ve been hacking away now for  2 hours straight and still have both my legs and all ten fingers and toes (touch wood) O’my  god  it’s like the enchanted forest in there in fact I’m sure I saw snow-white or was it Shrek

    I did see my first ladybird. Any way glad I’m cutting it down as I don’t think the brick wall would have lasted another year, how do I know this because the wall is moving from side to side when I try and shake the ivy lose. There must be about 12 inches of dead ivy under the new growth. I will of course post some pic’s as it comes down. I’ve stopped for now as it’s just about going to rain also it’s beaten me for today I think

    I may cut a tree down in the front garden so I can spend most of Friday running down to the tip with garden waste.

    Enjoying your blog, James, keep it up! I'm also a lurker/stalker, only post if I've got something I think is worth saying (not always the case, as many will agree!image).

  • James I've just seen all of this. What a clever person you are. Quite the handy man by the looks of it and quite a good gardener too, Clueless by name but not by nature me thinks! Keep at it, its looking fantastic so far and it'll only get better. Posting here so as not to be seen as some sort of mad cyber stalker image

  • hi CluelessGardener what is going on with your project it has not been updated for a while. hope you are ok andlook forward to you next update

  • Anthony Hello 

    yes it's been a little while since my last update I was going to update this weekend as I've been busy installing a new computer at home and also trying to move my Itunes of my ipod to the new computer however the Ipod is not playing well with others so I'm rebuilding my songs one album at a time.

    anyway more to follow over the weekend with images as well 

    yes yes yes still cutting down bloody ivy but I'm starting to win or I thought I was starting to win with hedges until I walked past the front right side of my boundary when I notices it needs trimming
