Makes such a difference too when they are upright. John bought some steel the other week and hes been making me supports. I can have them as big or small as I like :)

It's good when they retire Dawn all those little jobs get done , lucky you you can never have enough supports :-)
Robs busy making another small patio area, well he was until the heat came now you can't get a spade in the ground, we did buy a nice bistro set today for when its finished :-)

Hahaha Brian, one colour rusty or to be posh, rusted. Kathy, we like using these retired men, i do lists which kind of get ignored. Next job, paths through our huge beds, working progress, have to be done cheap but classy, lol. Brian, if you have any spare time, sure Kathy and I could put you to good use x

Ooo I wouldn't do a list Dawn there'd be no chance!, I usually try to do things myself then he'll come and take over I've learnt over the years if I nag he won't do things at all!!,got to be crafty lol.
Yes we need paths too Rob started some through the borders years ago but they never got finished, paths to nowhere!!
Yes Brian lots to do here I'll keep the tea and biscuits coming lol ;-)

Yes Brian, hot drinks, cake, cold drinks .... think he's ignoring us Kathy, like my lists I do for John. Good plan, no lists, damsel in distress approach, haha. What did Rob use for the paths? Bricks, bark, gravel? We are cheapskates. Would like to do from block paving bricks but might go for wooden edges to encapsulate ballast of some sort.

I make a mean carrot cake Brian ;-) lol
That's what we did Dawn wood edges and gravel, Rob got to a slope and wasn't sure how to solve the problem of it all running down the hill lol, sure he'll come up with a plan soon :-)
