    Congratulations, Sal! As 'M' wrote, we've seen how talented you are at design and creation, so you've got lots of scope to turn the house and garden into works of art:):love30:

      Congratulation on your new house! I agree it's sad to be moving when usually you would be pushing forward with sowing and planting but it won't be too later to get a result this summer in the new garden. Better to move now than in August and have to leave it at its peak. In a year or two's time you'll be looking back and be so glad you've got the new garden.

                  Good morning Sal,
                  it looks a lovely size and full of light too. I know you will make it special in time and I look forward to seeing the transformation too.

                    Sal - sorry I am so late, only just seen this thread. Congratulations, that new garden looks much bigger.

                    I wish you the very best of luck.

                    Hey there Sal! I too only just saw this thread. I was wondering where you got to:) Looks like you have some space to play with. Can't wait to see the transformation. I know it'll be something special:blue thumb:

                    And me! Sorry not to have seen this before :)

                    Your old garden was tiny, I was always amazed how much you managed to cram in - look forward to seeing your new garden crammed-in too :) and Mrs Sal not having to have any/hardly any/much less/.../Even more??!! plants on the windowsills :)

                    Once you have the house sorted give me a shout and I can sort out any "spares" I have that you can stuff into your new garden :)
