My Garden redesign....yes again.


Right my workforce.....Dad complete with hearing aid on show .....drilling to build the framework....he is a little slow but at 80+ I forgive him that. All the work is being done by me and my Dad....we have a working relationship in the garden I have the idea he has the patience and time and loves to be needed, and he is good very good...Plus he's cheap....
Stage 1




Starting to come together...stage 2.. the area directly in front of the raised bed will be slabbed and block paved.



Stage 3 or 4 depends on your POV....



Stage 5 maybe .....it will all become obvious as time goes on..... but the slabs on the right are a step up into the garden the rest is as they say in the planning stage.

Raised beds are wonderful! Ours will need to be renewed after this year as the wood is beginning to "go". Really fancy a new one for strawberries.

Doesn't your Dad kneel well for a gentleman of his age? If that were me I'd need a hand to get up!

Your garden is looking so much bigger already, Kazz!

Can your Dad fit in anymore jobs this year or is his appointment book full? Can't find good, cheap labour like that these days!
