Bills Garden


Well the weather has been dry today for the first time in ages, Bill has been out in the garden and its looking great.
The top stage of the garden was the last to be done and it was a real wilderness with bindweed and wild strawberries taking over.
Its been a real transformation, the area has been weeded and stone put down--there is somewhere to put the wishing well that Bill made a long time ago and has never had a proper home!
We have some plants to put in that we bought when doing the other 2 stages, so hopefully the weather will hold til that's done.
Theres been lots of trimming and pruning going on, the ivy had made it across the net on the pond to the other side almost-now its all neat and tidy again.
My herb garden is going to have a sort out tomorrow, the big bay tree is in for a major cut back-it may even come out and be put into a big pot.
I hope the weather holds til its all finished now, we will be packing away the garden furniture and BBQ cant see it being used much more this year !
Bill says as soon as he packs away the wind out sunblind we have over the patio door the weather will pick up again!
He said it would turn nasty when he put it back up there earlier this year and he was right!
