Well, I always said I'd get round to it one day

I know that this may shock those of a sensitive disposition, but this is a picture of my garden. Well, when I say ‘garden’, bare patch of ground might be more accurate. To appreciate the change, you would really need to see a ‘before’ picture, but for obvious reasons (embarrassment!!) I haven’t any. It used to be lovely, but that was about 7 years ago. That's the trouble with gardens. They grow, and then they overgrow.

OF COURSE I didn’t do it myself. How could I? You should have seen the chap’s face when I explained that there was a patio and chairs and a bench under the briars and brambles.

At least I have a blank canvas, though I’d better do something with it before it all starts to grow again. I’m thinking grass would not be the best of ideas this time!
