Making changes

The start of my garden revamp - the slabs have been laid to check the layout (it has changed a couple of times already) but I think this is the best. All the grass will go except for the centre bit which I'm keeping for the tortoises. If it gets too damaged throughout the year I can easily replace it with a roll or two of turf! Lots of work ahead - all I need is good weather and energy - and lots more plants. I've already bought some new ones, can divide others and have lots of seeds to scatter about :)

Thank you :) I've taken a day off today, a bit windy and drizzly here so I am baking instead. Amy, there is only a duo now - Little 'Un died a few years back now. Josie and Jubilee are doing fine and had their first outing on Sunday when it was really warm. They are back indoors under the heat lamp today :)

Don't hold your breath,SK, it's rather slow going, after a few hours I can hardly straighten up but it's getting there. Trouble is, I never know when to stop and am making the most of the sunshine. Thanks, PP and Shirley, I hope it works out :)

Lawns around here are full of moss!!! Extra flowers will be lovely and your tortoises will enjoy their grass area.

My front lawn is spongy and squelchy still, Linda, but I hope the sunshine will continue for a while and sort it out for me!

We all hope for more sunshine Gee....It's been quite a good week but the wind has been cold the last couple of days.
