Hi everybody, nice to be back :-)
Since my last blog – from utter neglect to something to be proud of
a lot has changed in my life! Relationships have come to an end, houses have been moved (several times) but I have my own place now, a lovely Victorian terrace, just to the North of Norwich City centre.
There’s not too much in the way of a garden as yet, but with the warmer weather approaching, I’m itching to get started!!

No lawn to speak of, I think the landlord laid one about 7 years ago but previous tennants just let it go:

I dismantled the horrible coal-bunker (resting against wall) to give me a little more space on the patio:

Painted most of the fence, amazing what a difference it makes!

I plan to re-lay the patio in the next few weeks (money permitting) & clean up all the cat poo (there’s tons of the stuff). I will put lots of pots around the garden as it’s not my house & I can take them with me if I ever move away.
More fence painting this weekend & more pictures to follow :-)

i'm a newbie to this site and picked up on your blog. Lucky you a blank canvas on which to put your mark! You're right about planting in pots so if you move you can take them with you, but don't forget those wonderful, colourful annuals. Keep the pics coming.

Good luck with your plans Zac, I saw the way you transformed your previous garden, it looked a treat, no doubt this one will look just as good...
