Spent much of the bank holiday weekend tidying up the garden. Weeding, pruning, turning over the soil...
Now it looks a little tidier and my body is considerably achier.
We have a guy coming around to value our house for our upcoming remortgage, so a tidy garden could only help improve his opinion of our home sweet home.
We have plans to work our garden into a traditional "english country garden" style, with plants overgrowing all over the place and a laissex-faire attitude to weeding. Our only problem is that the previous owner had exactly the opposite attitude. Leaving shale and gravel everywhere to discourage weeds and rather underwhelming choice of plants.
We have a lot of work ahead getting all the gravel up so we can do a bit of planting.
We're also considering having vegetables growing in planters and baskets to supplement our kitchen stocks.
Watch this space!
