                Yesterday my Dad gave me a hand to secure my blowaway to the fence. We've been meaning to do it but with one thing and another it's only just been done. Hopefully now, it won't blow over. :fingers crossed:

                      Cut the lawn for the first time this year and cleared the rest of the garden and cut everything back. It's starting to look like a garden again.

                        Took down 5.5 metre section of storm damaged fence ready to replace it. Was clearing up weeds and saplings in order to lay membrane and bark chips under the new fence when my back went! Thought it was a disc, but after ibuprofen, hot bath, radianB and large vodka it seems more likely to be muscular.
                        We'll see how it feels in the morning as I really need to crack on with the job.
