Garden - work in progress with helpers!


At long last hubby is finishing the walls he started to build last summer Once built then we can sort out the non-existant lawn We were going to flag the garden but have now decided we will most likely turf it...Here is work so far this evening..




Here is hubby taken somewhat by surprise by the camera




Smudge supervising things




Fudge and Smudge - best of buddies whilst they have a fence between them





Work so far on Porsha's run - still need to put the top on and sort out the ground. Thinking of putting rubber matting in there?




Claude surveying his territory from the shed in Porsha's run




Herbi on the run



Maddie and Tikka begging to come on the decking to play with Herbi




Builder's bum

Yes of course she is Dawn. The run is just to allow her some outside access and fresh air...

I thought it was a bit odd for you! I have been thinking about that for Wiggy and the others here, with the Ferret pen that wasnt collected, so I have told them to get lost! to make it more Cat friendly as they all have moved in anyway! a bit of safety when outside unsupervised.

I saw it as an easier option than trying to cat proof the garden to be honest. I was going to harness train her but feel she will have more freedom in a run?

Your hubby is getting on well Fran I'd put flags down though if I were you give the grass a miss, but certain either will look good.
And its a good idea the run for Porsha, do you think the others will move in with her,

And when did you get a tortoise I love them my friend Ivy has a tortoise called "SPEEDY" he is at least 40 Ivy brought him when she got married I am down to "inherit" him as Ivy's husband has died and her daughter Julie don't want him I've liked him since I first saw him over 20 years ago.

Me too . . . but I guess it's a personal preference thing and I suppose the rabbits would welcome grass as slabs can be a bit indigestible . . .
