I've made a start

Took some photo’s today and hope to get them up. Have basically halved the garden and today have started putting up a homemade pergola/arbour around a simple slab area, built a small fence to separate the drying area. Hoping now to plant Honeysuckle and Passionflower around the pergola and finish preparing the rest of the bed which I have cut in an oval shape. At the end of the slabs I have dug in two open bottom pots with Hostas inside, the slugs here are unbearable and I dare them to climb up petroleum jellied pot tops.

Yes I should know better about daring slugs Fluff, I hate using slug pellets though since a blackbird has been following me about the garden recently pulling up worms as I dig, must have been a Robin in it's past life.
Thank you terratoonie, I'm new to this and didn't know what GoYpedia was and now i've checked im flattered :o)

You have been busy - couldnt agree more that you shouldnt ever dare slugs. You never know when they are listening. I think their most annoying habit is crawling up the windows onto the ivy then across to the trees to drop inside my careful copper rings. Ugh.

Thanks again all, and Sussexsarah poor you, you must be constantly washing windows. I've noticing a lot of grass grazing slugs, I have loads at night munching grass, how many more folks have this problem?
