Another idea!



I would like to plant some fruit bushes, so to soften the blow to David i am very kindly saving him £30 (lorry tyre disposal fee) and I am going to use them as planters and they will also save on posts, to hold up the bank!! I am so considerate, David used another word...
Also a path would look good, we have some old black bricks and red tiles which need using...i've also decided that i like the number 3 (it is my birth path number, the difference between lana and chelsies 7 & 4) - so i have themed my 'sanctury area' on 3. It also stands for:

  • Past Present and Future
  • Mineral, Vegetable and Animal
  • Solid, Substantial and Entire
  • Fairies are meant to live between 3 trees, oak, ash and thorn.

If you look closely at the picture on the left by the carrots, my bees have a new home...thank you Louisa.

Wood henge


Well, David and the girls really think i've lost the plot( pardon the pun) "oh no! what have you done now?" "you are sooo embarrasing!" "What on earth!"
They have no immagination, just wait they will think that my hammocks are great, i wish now though i had only ordered 1 for me and i could have smugly rocked watching the clouds go by....no doubt one of them would have tipped me out! So 3 it is and 1 hammock chair.

yumm yumm



It is all growing really well. Ihave had another idea, i need a place to relax to after picking out the weeds, lugging my buckets of collected rainwater and picking off all the enemies, no! not the planners, slugs, snails, caterpillars. So i think, i need 3 telegraph poles in a triangle, so i can hang hammocks from them...Bees return

Veg patch with bees

We begun with bare, nettle, thistle earth

Breeze blocks to create 4 triangles and 1 rectangle

Railway sleepers on top, this will give me deeper raised beds, longer carrots!!

Filled the beds with my home made compost, sheep poo and 10 tonne of top soil

I'm planting them up quicker than my 2 little bees can build them...patience...emm no it's been used up by planning and the wind.
