      And here is the all but finished article:

      Tomorrow's job will be to fill it up, plant it up, and find a suitable position.

      I've almost got the parts to make another, so I think I will do so over the winter and plant it up next year with petunias :blue thumb:

            Looks like a mouse fun run to me FC. They are excellent climbers.

                  Unusually, no - been off today as the wee one was off school for an 'inset day', off Monday for another (although we are not sure that it is one now, as there is some confusion), so took Saturday and Sunday off too - - - four whole days to myself :hapydancsmil:

                    Going to make the best of it Loli - got my lawnmower and strimmer back from brother in law this evening, and tomorrow will be a day of sorting out the greenhouse, planting stuff out and hopefully onto cleaning up on Sunday.

                      Its not great here either Jenny - showers tomorrow & Sunday, and not all that warm.

                      If I can't get the grass cut, it will be me and the radio in the greenhouse - at least I have that wee haven this year.
