    Erecting a sail?   

    Liri - posts crossed.  I have dead straight hair so any trip to the hairdressers for a "style" is fraught as mistakes show the minute I've washed it and taken out all the gunk they use to hold it.   Had it waist length for most of my life but got it cut to shoulder length the year I got married  and then shortened to a bob for a few years but it means I can't see when I'm leaning over to garden so I've gone back to keeping it long and just tying it back out of the way.  Gets a bit boring.

    Bruno, the horsey neighbour, has just been to tell me that Luc, the beef cattle neighbour is upset that we've offered him our paddock so he won't be taking it.  Not happy as Luc assured me it would be OK and he only ever put two cows in there to keep the grass down for the last owner here after her OH scarpered.   Bruno doesn't want to upset him and have bad relations between neighbours.  The rent was to be all the lovely horse poo for our compost bins.   Not impressed.

    Might bulldoze the lot and plant an orchard!

    Back to filling holes and painting while I grump..

    Wonky, you have been really busy!!!!  Lovely for you to get a greenhouseimage

    oh dear Obelixx. How to keep the neighbours happy? Matters might be resolved  and you will be able to get the horse manure.

    Hello all! Hope you have all had a great winter and today is my first attack  the garden! Loving it again. Had lots of tree work done last month which has left me with 4 builders bags of mulch to use! Some bits and bobs are coming through but not a great deal so far. Struggling with remembering what's what - a first for me, I have always know the name of every plant in my garden! oh well it's fuller now so the memory needs to expand to accomodate all the names. Also had a bit of a is it isn't it weed moment ( on another thread). Going back to the garden for half an hour then will have lunch and look for some garden photos on here to make me jealous.image

    Hello Mrs Garden  image  Good to see you ... sounds as if you've had a radical change ... will there be a lot more light now the tree work is done?
