    That's so kind, thank you!

    I've just spent an hour tidying up the patio and moving some pots around. It's made a small but significant improvement already :)

      Even the little jobs can make a difference Arlandria, it's when you let them mount up it can get a bit daunting.

          Thanks! Probably won't get any big jobs done until the weekend now (husband has to work and I have to parent / homeschool) but I'll keep taking and sharing pics when things happen :)

          It's a penguin puppet in a kid's paddling pool full of water. Not sure if he's happy about it but my daughter certainly was! I was looking through my phone for a suitable pic and the bright colours jumped out at me. I thought most people would have something flowery so I'd be easily recognisable with something else :biggrin:

            Very good :biggrin:...I did wonder if it was a close up of the centre of an Iris or something similar.

                We did some more cleaning up from the shed demolishing this weekend and it's looking much better!

                I've made a separate thread in the appropriate area to keep posting about the ongoing work: Arlandria's Long-Term Garden Renovation Thread
