Well, next thursday plays host to my mums 50th Birthday..and i was sitting with my older sister earlier, much older may i add-shes started to go grey before our mother!, anyway and we were discussing what to get mom for her birthday...she has everything, you could buy her clothes-she wont wear them, jewellery-she's got by the bag load, n all that jazz..so, whilst pitching our money together were having a raised decking patio put down the bottom of the garden-should take up a fair bit of room, and going to throw a patio heater on there aswell

She's always complaining about having nowhere decent to sit in the garden..and that the bottom of the garden is 'boggy, therefore a waste as i would need bloomin marine plants to survive in there' *said in a thickset midlands accent*.
So this should be the perfect thing.
Just not sure exactly how its going to be sprung as a surprise

Its shockingly costly for what it is..and the labour n such.
