Me and my wife Jackie live in Milton Keynes. We’ve been working on our front and back garden during the weekends over the last 18 months. Last year we felt our garden wasn’t good enough to enter in for the garden of the year competition. This year we’ve worked hard and now we have just entered the gardens in for the 2011 Milton Keynes Garden of the Year competion. We should hear something back in the next 3 weeks.

Please take a look at our photo’s.

I will keep everyone posted if we hear something back on the results.

Fingers Crossed.
