    Hello mate, Good to see your thread up again, your design is a favourite of mine from GC last year. Go turf I would. Find a good local turf farm and in half a day you are done. Can't wait for pics.

    Turf is certainly quicker - but I'd prefer seed..... Either way you'll have to keep off it for a while. Let's see how the votes go..... so far it's one each!

    Well, I should change the heading of this topic now... We no longer have a bombsite! Time to sit back and watch it grow :cool:

    Excellent stuff! Yes - sit back and watch it grow sounds like a very good idea! Just you'll have to cut the grass from time to time, in between the odd cool drink..... :D Looks like you had a busy Easter break!

    Which tree did you choose for that back left corner?

    I think it's an Acer - Maple leaf.

    My wife did the plant side of things!?!

    Is there such thing as a Acer - Maple leaf?
