Hey Kaz....Mr L picked mine up from PO while i was at work this morningwhat a lovely suprise to come home to....thanks very much....
It's taking pride of place in MY den...which is still work in progress....I've called it Myosotis Lodge and when i get round to it it will be full of things that hold special memories that i don't ever want to forget....so i can't think of a better place to put my prezzie....thanks again..XXX

 

I tell you what Kaz....what you've done for your MIL is amazing...just been looking back at the pics.....sadley my MIL is MOL...(outlaw)and it make me a bit sad to think what good pals we could have been.....Annny way...keep up the great work you're doing....but don't wear you're self out

 

I second that and sadly I dont have my MIl or my Mam anymore what you have and are still doing is amazing.

Yes dont overdo it so that it becomes a chore you still want it to be a pleasure.

Well done on all your hard work if there was an award to be given you totally deserve it.

 

ladies you are all to kind, i am glad that you like your token gifts i only wish it could have been more,
not a chore at all, i enjoy helping my MIL she is one in a million and truly deserves it, I wish my Mother had been a fraction of this amazing lady (But sadly this was not the case)
Not very much more can be done now until the builders have been and done their thing, but all of the plants are coming along nicely in both hers and my gardens, I shall make the beds once the work is completed so in the mean time it is just a case of weeding and tidying as the season goes on.
she has had a fab display though and really appreciated it (and she hasn't seen half yet)
Joolz she wants a seat like yours so can you post a couple of pictures so i can copy the design, i will make it so that later her seat can be removed so that her wheelchair will be able to go under Ta much

Loli i love your summer room i so want one ( i hate my small garden)

Kath the only award i need or want is to see mam smile thats Reward enough for me

 

Kaz you have done a belting job its lovely and if there is any other plant/plants you want as your continuing along , post it on here as im sure one of us might have some x
I shall take a pic of the love booth for you,im sure you will build one 10x better easily,i bought that from B&Q(bit rickety) and its the cats use it mostly
Do ya a swap for the den lolimac

 

Hi lolimac, love your summer den Never saw one that color other than in our own yard. Ours is used for tools and bikes...yours looks so charming and inviting! Think I gotta find another storage for tools and bikes

 

CK how is MIlaws garden project now?

 

hi kath
We are still waiting on the building work to be done and then i can really get stuck in, she has enjoyed the pots that we did through the summer and some of these will stay and now that i have a larger car i can take more things at a time down to mams I have all the timber for the new fencing and the raised beds ( which will be filled by the soil removed by the builders) they should be all done by the spring which will be just in time for planting on and out
i have only lost one buddlia and one hebe from all that was given, we even have some to make a start on the back garden too !

 

I love them blue pots kaz did the lilac astilbe show up for you or did i send 2 pink or white by mistake ..i was thinking about it last week i will send you another if i sent a wrong one,my lilac didnt start to flower till aug i think after the pink and white ones had finished
Keep up the great work xx Hope MILs okay,if she anything like my mam shel be wanting to start xmas shopping already xx

 

hiya joolz
the blue pots will all be kept at the front the plastic terecota will go in the back once i have made the raised beds in the front,
it was one white and one pink, she doesnt really do her christmas shopping as it stresses her out i tend to turn up with things that i have picked up and we wrap them together and she will pay me back, she does like christmas though, i on the other hand has nearly finished lol
we are off the london next week to see the skin specialists, she is not looking forward to that at all !!!!!

 

I will send another astilbe( lilac this time) they are planted a bit close together the pink& lilac so i appologise xx
I hope its a positive outcome with the specalist and they really help her x

P.S. you need to start a thread on xmas shopping please and how we all can acheive what you have already xx give us a boost and some tips xx
