    Great fun competition - thanks Robbsy

    1st: Petal's Bike - just looks so natural as if it's always belonged there.

    2nd: Paladin's Whetstone - I could use one of those!

    3rd: Tigglestiggles' Allotment shed - A little TLC, a new roof and four new walls and it'll be good as new. :D (Well, I felt sorry for it!)

    Right, quite a strange collection this time round,

    1st Petals bike
    2nd Paladins signpost
    3rd Hex's greenhouse
    Difficult though, ask me tomorrow and I'll probably come up with three different ones.

    [​IMG] Well this months certainly turned out to be quite tough to fill... [​IMG] There have been some excellent photos. Just shows what you can do with imagination.... :D Here are my votes....

    1st. Paladin, for "Excalibur"! Now that is certainly different & unusual to have in your garden... :D

    2nd. Dalbuie, and the "tatty picker".. Love old machinery & love to see it "just put" like that.. [​IMG]

    3rd. Liz, for her mosaic, the one with the two dogs looking fed up that the attention is not on them.... A lovely idea, tells a little history... [​IMG]

    Well done everyone, some very unusual things in peoples gardens... Thanks for sharing..

    Another fun month with some great shots and an insight into people's quirkiness.
    Hard to choose again but here goes.
    1. Hex's Bird Aviary - I'm intrigued by the shape and wish I had something like that in my garden.
    2. Paladin's Points of Interest - because my husband was born in Bourton on the Water.
    3. Robbsys Bog Garden - an inventive, fun way to recycle your old sanitary ware.

    Difficult this one. Whilst I could find nothing in my or local gardens to provide, I did enjoy others pictures, particularly the ones where you could see the item in the garden context. Therefore for me:

    1. Marley Farleys - children's coal house garden
    2. Steve W - painted bath pond
    3. Dalbui- pensive figure

    loved Petal's planted bike and paladin's scythe and grinder too.
