    Hi Woo well done in getting it all finished,though I need to go back and have a look through your posts as I have missed when you did the building of the walled border with the grasses in it and also the circular bed that holds the statue.Very well done [​IMG] [​IMG]

    PS Don't let Mrs Woo push you too hard,I have been waiting for nearly six years for my husband to build our wooden conservatory and it still isn't finished.My friends keep telling me I should get the whip out but I am a bit soft in that way [​IMG] :rolleyes:

    hi woo
    what are you going to do next? come on, you must have something up your sleeve. Maybe you are going to travel around Britain helping all your friends on here :D

    you know you would get a warm welcome, together with load of gardens that needed sorting. How satisfying would that be? we could all chip in for an opened train ticket for you and you could spend all of next year travelling!

    Then you could go back to yours, maybe 2010, and it would need some work again. Problem solved. [​IMG]

    cheers

    Hi Sandra Does an open train mean one without a roof on It :D As long as you don't mind me working at night and sleeping by day It will be a pleasure I would do it for a Jam sandwich and a bale of straw to sleep on under the Stars. [​IMG]

    Woo I agree with Sandra it seems you will soon run out of garden at the rate you are going dear fellow but as always I'm sure you or is that Mrs.Woo? will find something to keep you busy.

    By the way I think your display name is all wrong it should be something like Busy Bee as you are always on the go! :D

    You garden is looking good Woo very nice trellis work...what are you thinking of planting to grow up it..some pretty flower for Mrs.Woo maybe?

    right woo, i should have said 'openeded' train ticket i think [​IMG]

    i'm still sure you would get lots of invite for you & mrs woo, although there's not much coming through here at the moment. maybe you don't want to 'come up north' [​IMG]

    like i said, one day maybe we can have a big train or the like, to come round everyones places and we will just all join together no matter what we are like otherewise. join up for one night or day and have a look at gardens & get to know each other. put some issues forward to the political parties, we shall push them to do this - they do other stupid things. we will win with the likes of us.

    flipping heck, sorry! all it started from was a garden.

    cheers

    wow, its been interesting sitting here and seeing a whole garden come to completion - it looks really nice (and posh too!) well done, and i think the lions finish it off, dont know why they were so controversial

    Hello Woo! I have just read thro' this terrific thread and I am amazed at the work you have been doing over the past months since July to see your garden plans come to fruition (pardon the pun!)

    I am told that hot tubs are marvellous for an aching back, have you any room in your lovely garden to squeeze one in?

    Can I ask you what you have planted in the low brick-edged border (on the right of your penultimate photo??) just in front of your seating/trellis area - can't quite make out what they are (poor old eyesight!)- but they look lovely! Bye bye [​IMG]
