Caravan Garden

We had some turf left over from the new lawn area, so decided to put a patch by the caravan. Added some pea shingle for the path. Looks like a nice little garden now. There's still a bit to do in this area as we are building a raised flower bed too.

At last the old Vegetable Patch has been lawned. No more weeding. Lee spent most of the day laying down the turf. Most people would fill it with borders but I love the open space we have created.

Messed Up on the Grass Order

So I ordered the grass for our vegetable patch. Thought we would be getting 16 square metres to cover the whole patch but we ended up with 16 metre rolls :) not quite what we were expecting so another order is in for next week.  On the plus side Lee has managed to fix all the awkward patches and I've been smashing slate tiles to go around the Rowan Trees.

As we have loads of old wood, these are being put to use to edge the borders, fix fences are other useful things.
