Well i dunno if anyone gives a shit but...
Our garden was in a bit of a mess, it's a huge garden.. My Mam has wanted a nice garden for years and she's getting on a bit now so thought i'd get it done for her...especially since i have calmed down now and don't go out at weekends..keeps me outta trouble
Well half of the garden was a mess, all uneven since Dad & his mate dug it up years ago, and they left all the turfs in a huge pile at the bottom which looked shit
I got a lend of a digger about a month ago so set about stripping the turfs and burying them, and keeping the topsoil to pull back over the top again..
Half way done here...also dug up some of the path that is going down the middle of the 2 halves of the garden as it had grown over with grass..
Then i levelled off the top 3rd of the garden as i am putting 3m x 4m wooden decking down.. The middle part will be grass, and the bottom 3rd will be for veg etc as Dad wants to plant stuff.. The strip on the right of the pic is gonna be another path which goes to the other gate
I loosened up all the soil and Dad rotivated it, then we put up a fence round the veggy patch bit last weekend.. The box at the bottom is for planting herbs & whatever
This bit is the path im extending from the front of the house which will carry on to the left at the back of those trees
These logs are to hold up that path as it would cave in onto the wooden decking
This corner used to be full of nettles, thistles, and manky old logs which were rotting away...cleared it out last year and dug it up and grass seeded it
This is the good half of the garden, that stone bit was all overgrown with grass so i dug it all out, cleared it all off the stones, then spread wooden bark onto it
And planted some flowers in it, 3 different kinds of Lavender, Curry Plant, wild strawberry etc
Thats about the jist of it so far...
