    Hello, surely I wasn't the ONLY person to have seen photo number one and photo number two being the SAME photo ???? :confused:

    Nice change, I like the arch .. I'm into arches myself and I particularly like the sundial!

    anyone spot what looks like a change of position of the neighbouring houses??????

    And yes, Nathan hasn't done anything at all, has he?? Except maybe run an on-line discussion forum! :rolleyes:

    As for pot-a-holic - of course!!! But it takes ages to water them all - just wait till you see the hanging baskets and bags!!!

    Wow Dendy - you have worked hard!!!! Maybe, one of these days I'll be able to post an "after" photo - and not just before, during, and here's our most recent disaster!!!!!
    Is the nearest to the camera in the second photo your veg plot???
