So I received this as a gift, as I mentioned to a friend a number of years back I'd like one. Since then, my garden has filled a bit!The only...
Hello!I am in the process of demolishing an old broken down play house - see photo (not the swing). It will leave me with some space which I'd...

@pete The tree is somewhere in the region of 200m from the sea wall. And boy was it a salty wind. The windows were grey!And to @Tidemark point,...
