Re: Garden Rebuild from Winter Damage!
Hey Dee!! Sorry for being gormless and missing your thread. I also didn't get round to sending you Tabularis, I've smacked my hand!! promise to do it next time. Hubby has done a fine job with the raised planters, looks great and a riot of colour in your garden as usual.

Re: Garden Rebuild from Winter Damage!
Deedee, Sorry I'm late seeing this thread, just got back from a hot week a way with the family. WOW WOW WOW, being a fellow geordie your garden has inspired me, so much colour, really vibrant and tropical looking. My garden is small and has limited colour, after seeing yours I may well be introducing more colour into mine next year. Really lovely, well done to hubby too, I have a useful one of those as well , I bring him out from time to time to build something or lift something heavy
Re: Garden Rebuild from Winter Damage!
just catching up too..
yeah Deedee, my mum had to fork out for the new fencing when the other lot came down.. the woman who lives there is really kind and helpful but her husband is the opposite and unfortunately he was the first to show up on cue and just stood there watching us lift the panels up and basically said 'oh well, we'll leave it upto you to get a new fence..'
and by the way i think your neighbour has put them the wrong way round anyways! i always thought that with those lap panels your supposed to put the 'upwards' side facing your side and the 'downwards' side facing into next doors?

Re: Garden Rebuild from Winter Damage!
Thanks Kata, Daliah's are nearly finished now
Thought i would add a few more pics, We, well hub, finally added electricity to the righthand side of the garden last year, the lefthand side was already wired up. Not that we used it much with the rain, I took a few pics about May/june time and the lights haven't been on since
Sorry about the quality of them, i was experimenting
A couple of Day to Night Pics...

Re: Garden Rebuild from Winter Damage!
Beautiful Deedee, lighting is a great thing to do in the garden, it looks so different at night and extends the time you can use it. I feel slightly self conscious when relaxing at night in mine, think all neighbours are looking out of their windows, they are not, just me being paranoid . I certainly hope you suffer less damage this forthcoming winter than last year.
Re: Garden Rebuild from Winter Damage!
Thanks Trudytropics, Im secretly hoping the shed gets blown down this year It will give us the push to renew it lol..
