    If you mean the chairs Val, no, they came from Asda like that. It's a plastic weave and stay outdoors all year.

      The dusk piccys are fab :dbgrtmb:. I've experimented with solar up lighters - but your garden looks really great. Fantabulous place to spend a warm Summer evening. Try some night scented stock near the seating. :)

      Cheers...i've planted Nicotiana and Nicotiana Sylvestris around the seating, also some lemon scented Pelargoniums...should smell lovely at night.

      Yes, originally i used solar lighting, but it was crap, so i've wired in some lights from Lights4fun, they come on at sunset at go off at 1am automatically using a Wemo Remote controlled by wifi.
