A Lick of Paint

We're carrying on the Black and White colour scheme and what a difference a bit of paint makes. Lee painted the Garage and Garden Shed and made a Cover for the Logs. I think we are doing well as we've only been here 3 months.

Smart Black and White Garage

This old picture shows some of the trellis around the Little Orchard. We've managed to save some of it and are up-cycling the little fences and I need to save all the climbers that were rambling along them.

There are lots of little sections in this garden which is really nice. The Log Store is just between the greenhouse and garage under the pine trees.

Might have to plant some of the clematis and roses in that border at the front ... wonder if Lee will put up some of the trellis there.

Boiler Broke

Our first major disaster. Well second really, as we already had the boiler men around to sort out the electrics on the boiler so that the timer worked, and also remove some radiator pipes that were just sticking out of the floor in the hallway. Anyway the floor flooded and we had to replace the boiler. This led to us having to put new panels up in the conservatory to cover the new pipes and filter. An excellent opportunity to strip and repaint the wall as some of the wallpaper was peeling away anyway. This is what it looked like before.
