Aww thanks so much all of you-it makes it so much fun knowing i can show you all! yes i planted the sunflowers hoping the kids would like them, alfie is into watering, he does the plants and the bare patches, so cute, but i have to watch him for messing with the water butt lol think ill put some bog plants round there! charlie isnt interested in anything but eating at the moment so maybe he will like to plant veg when he can! i do love lights as we spend a lot of time out at night and cant wait to creatively illuminate some flowers! yes its thanks to all you guys im getting far! much love :o)
