    Hi Sheal and thank you, its mainly done to stop me thinking,I was told if you think to much you can forget how to laugh;)
    weeded the bricks out,and moved some earth,will sieve it tomorrow and level the bank,Doesn't look much area but in real life its 12ft x 8ft:)

      I agree with you about the thinking! :) What type of soil do you have Woo, in the picture it looks quite light in texture? Is it stoney, or are you tackling rubble?

                A very healthy green Woo. I presume we have to wait until next spring to see the wildlife? :)

                    I'm no expert on meadow flowers Woo but I would think they won't show themselves until the new year. You could risk a high cut now to tidy it up. :)

                            It'll be interesting to see how this wild area will develop Woo.
                            Looks full of promise,
