New seating area made by my lovely hubby :-),although he's not happy with it says the gravels to bright so he's going to mix it with some slightly darker,it does have a stone circle in the middle not very visible in this picture. Its great now he's retired made me a new compost bin yesterday at the bottom of the garden so I don't have to come all the way up the hill!!

Yes he does the grass Siris but I do the edges! ;-)
Thanks Dawn, I love the Stipa think its my favourite grass, I split this one a couple of years ago now and have 2 they look good for so long don't they.Came home yesterday after a day out shopping with Danielle and Suzanne, Rob didn't want to come, think his exact words were I'd rather have my eyes poked out with a hot iron!!!, well the sleeper that slid down the hill all those years ago had been cut into smaller pieces and made into steps to go down the hill in the wood, half finished already, so he was shattered last night.
I keep the tea coming Carole and Amy, thanks :-)
Thankyou Homebird I'm loving having him at home, he always worked shifts anyway so used to having him around a lot :-)

Hahaha Kathy, I'm glad the sleeper has been ressurected and put to good use. Men and shopping, tut. John is one of those who stands outside the shop, but very rarely joins us which is good ;-)
What fell to the depths of the pond that time?

It does Dd we're a good team he does the landscaping me the planting ;-)
He's finished the steps Dawn they look really good. Oh yes that was the waterlily shot off a plank that Rob thought would be good to lower it onto the pond shelf, 8ft down it went !!! thought that was the end of that as you know your supposed to lower them gradually I wasn't going in after it, remarkably the next year it was flowering and still doing well.

Excellent Kathy. Oh yes, the water lily haha so pleased the negative turned into a positive. Rob is good. John is good when I drag him out of the garage, but so frustrating as he is so good at everything.
