    I have one, it's rarely used in this garden though :doh: In my previous garden, we used it to make our bacon butties :heehee:

    Can't wait to see how you make a feature with it :dbgrtmb:

              Looking very colourful and inviting! Such a huge contrast to how it was one year ago. A compliment to the hard work that you have put into it. :thumbsup: Which begs the question ...





              ... when is the party to "wet the babies head" (figuratively speaking)

                        I understand its not everyone's cup of tea we all have our own taste but its exactly what I want and love it,

                        Yes S very pleased with the climbers I cant wait while they all mature, I have a lovely clematis flowering at the moment its leaves look like velvet.

                              ^^ Many thanks, i would love to pop over but I don't think I will ever get finished here :wallbanging::heehee:

                              Over the last few days ive managed to paint the side and added show facias round the door and one window these little bits and painting them white really finishes it off, its starting to look like a summer house now :),

                              I need to measure and order a window for the door note to oneself :).
