After burning myself out decorating & cleaning the house in readiness for the return of my hubby for Christmas I realised the garden was a weed infested wilderness. Daisy Dukes to the rescue! Sam has been a little star! she has worked tirelessly in all kinds of weather to make my 'wasteland' resemble a garden at last!

Looking forward to a big planting session in the new year!

Also thanks to Seyhan for the lovely gates & railings which have completed the picture!

Agree, DD is a great worker, her talents know no bounds when it comes to gardening (and housework!).

OI arrry....just because my own house is a building site, doesn't mean i can't clean other peoples houses!!





And i can dish up references to prove it...



why is it so impossible to do my own house....



Is there any wealthy folk out there that would like to come to my house and finish it....? (or give me a blank cheque) I'd be your friend forever!!

My garden is my sanity. I love working on it, it gives back 1000 fold any attention you lavish on it My garden in K5 was beautiful and I spent so many hours on it. oh well, I am beginning to knock this new one into shape

I rescued 200 plus freesia bulbs and planted them. They have given me a magnificent show but are now on the wain., the cyclamen, bouganvelia, hibiscus are all thriving.. 22 oleanders I transplanted are doing well.

I have painted my two rescued sheds dark blue with light blue window surround and doors. One regret my palms were just to big to dig out, so they remain the property of the Bank.
