Good! As long as it aint a daft one!!
I wanted a real wheel, but cant get one yet!!

30 Aug, 2009

 

One of the old cart wheels would do that look in paper for sale and wanted they are about 40.00 for that size though.

30 Aug, 2009

 

Exactly! I cant afford that!

30 Aug, 2009

30 Aug, 2009

youve made a great job mari, smell will be lovely

30 Aug, 2009

 

I was just out cutting the grass & trimming the edges, & when I did that bit, the smell was so good, I ended up picking some basil & eating it!!

30 Aug, 2009

 

lol mari, is it nice just on its own like that

30 Aug, 2009

 

I think so! I sometimes chop it into a salad! I love the taste!

30 Aug, 2009

30 Aug, 2009

 

Do! If you like pesto, you'll like it raw!

30 Aug, 2009

 

yes i do like pesto, i use that with pasta

30 Aug, 2009

 

Well pesto is just basil, oil, garlic & pine nuts!
And parmesan, San!

30 Aug, 2009

 

really, better to make your own then, nice and fresh

30 Aug, 2009

 

MUCH better! It'll keep for a week or 2 in a jar in the fridge too! Oops! Forgot the parmesan! It HAS to have LOADS of parmesan grated in!!

30 Aug, 2009

30 Aug, 2009

anything you plant there will do well.
under mine the grass grows a lot thicker than anywhere else in the garden.

30 Aug, 2009

 

I had that problem too! Thats part of the thinking behind putting the whirlygig in the herb bed (the other was space!!)
I've added sand, grit & compost, & turned the soil over about 5 times, so the clay should stay broken up!
