            Running around again to day, so not much time in garden.

            Planted a lemon balm and an oregano down by pond. Made a start on trying to extract another oregano from a belfast sink - it doesn't wish to acquiesce to my request to vacate :snorky:. Discovered why dove has been hanging around in cherry tree - see pic in what's flying or buzzing :hapydancsmil:.

              Sorry to hear you've spent your day running around again but at least you have done a couple of things in your garden..it's better than doing nothing [​IMG]

                  Yes, it all helps. I need to be getting on with the big jobs though as garden is running away from me again so I end up getting overwhelmed and frustrated with it :gaah:. I want it to be ramshackle and overgrown but I want it to be organized ramshackle and overgrown if that makes any sense. Hopefully I can get some jobs done over weekend.

                        Errr, no I want it to be overgrown and untidy but in places that suit me :snorky: :snorky:. The whole garden is for the benefit of the wildlife but it does need a loose sort of structure to it.

                          I don't like fences Gail TBH i put new fences in and covered them in climbers and conifers i would sooner be looking at a climbing plant than a fence, ive planted climbers on all my fences and the new one will be no exception now ive the ok from the owner,

                          The climbers are still getting established but a few weeks/months time and they will be all green and in flower.
