    That is amazing.  Well done.  It must give so much pleasure to the locals and passers-by.

    Haven't been on here for a while but I took some photos recently so thought I'd stick them on.

    Will catch up with your link too Berghill - sounds great from Joyce's description, but it always is image

    Nice to see you Hefty.  I don't remember you doing the guerilla gardening, but you've done it really well. That's a great bit of spring colour   image

    ah wow thanks so much everyone - really appreciate it

    @ Obelixx - I had a really amazing response from people, and after a short while I had inquiries to see if I could come and do something similar for local residents in their own back gardens etc, transform an unloved patch into something beautiful - after a few months, through word of mouth and recommendations, I had enough clients to turn it into an actual business.

    so now im a gardener :) yay!!!

    heres a before n after pic of one of the gardens i worked on image
