Good evening all.I hope you are all well.The garden is done, we started just before 9am this morning and finshed at 6pm,we went out briefly for compost and plants and we are all tired now but it was worth it.Just a shame about the view i have now but hey oh.
So here are a few pics.
Top half of my garden, new plants in and bark down.
my new little owl solar lights, can`t wait for it to go dark tonight.lol
I GOT THESE OWL SOLAR LIGHTS FROM WORK (B&M BARGAINS- £2.99 EACH)
New plants in my pots and i`ve uncovered my bench now.this patio bit is going to be decked soon and hopefully screened off in some way so we have somewhere a bit more private to sit, you will see further down why.
my new lavender plants.
more owls and more plants and more bark.
THE OWLS ON STICKS WERE ALSO FROM WORK, I THINK THEY WRE £6.99 EACH, THEY ARE CALLED HESTON,OZZY,JARVIS.LOL
and then heres the eyesore, we have not bothered planting anything or barking down the lefthand side or the bottom because of the scaffolding and because we don`t know whats happening with the dividing fence.
and a view right up the garden.what you cant see to my left on the eyesore is a downstairs toilet window that i can virtually touch, fabulous NOT.
All that we need to do now is use some feed and weedkiller on the lawn but i can`t put it down yet as the one i have brought can`t go on to a fresh cut lawn.
Thanks for looking.
Hugs Nic.xx

OMW, you've worked hard Nic - it looks lovely!! The scaffolding will be gone when the work is finished won't it and then it'll all look fab!

Hopefully once the building is finished everything will be ok, and privacy restored.

My patio has been dug up since last august, finally yesterday concrete went down and hopefully next week slabs will go down!!! fingers crossed. Next door starts there extension soon eeeeeeeeeeeek, not looking forward to that xx
Looking good Nic - I would be putting up a bigger fence to block out that house and then some really tall trees and plants. I love your solar owls and those other owls on sticks - I love owls, can I ask where you got them from? Hugs, Claire x
Looks great Nic! Where did you get your owls? Trish x
You've done a fab job Coops, I love all the little owls :) Pity about your neighbours, hopefully their work will be done with soon!

You have been busy. Do you want to come and sort out mine?
Is the planning dept aware of hiw close that window is? I thought there were minimum distances etc to allow privacy.
Hi Coops
You have been working hard.
I bet your lovely lights are shining beautifully now.
I hope you are having a good bank holiday.
Love Jules xx
Great job! Feel free to come and sort my weeds out next :). Lovin your wee owls!
snap my achy bones or muscles, started and finished same time, but well worth it, let me know about the owls please as I need new garden lights and these look fab.

Wow Nic, what a huge garden - no wonder you were feeling tired after all that hard work. The Owls are gorgeous, and I love the fact that you've given some of them names!
Enjoy your Bank Holiday Monday - hugs, Sylvia xx
Wow hun, you must be knackered! Looks fab though. LOVE the owls!! Put up pics when all your flowers are blooming :) How gorgeous you're going into Spring. It's howling a gale outside right now, we've had torrential rain for the past few days. Gone is my lovely Kiwi Summer :( Hugs, Wends xxx
oh Nic you have such a wonderful garden, sorry to see the icky scaffolding but hopefully they will scoot soon as it looks like they are almost up to the roof.
huge hugs Lou xx
What a busy day, no wonder you are tired. Shame about the eyesore but at least it will come down eventually :o)

Hi Nic.....its looking great sweetie! If you've got a Homebase store nr to you its worth popping in and having a mooch around the garden centre dept...if it is anything like my store we have been inundated with bedding plant stock and have had to reduce the price of lots of the spring bedding stuff just to get them sold.
Hi Nic,
Hopefully the view will improve, and you will have a high fence to hid most of it.
Your garden is looking lovely hope the other bit can be done soon
Well done, I have one down here if you need more garden enjoyment you won't find an eye-saw, just a long piece
Margaret
Your garden is looking fabulous Nic,love all the owls...Hope you get the scaffolding sorted out soon,don't think I would like to look at it for so long...

Hi Nic
Well your hard work has paid off... it looks good! and I love those little owls.. and the big ones too! Maybe the builders will replace the fence? or plant a big hedge?? The least they can do for you letting them put scaffolding in your garden!
Big hugs
Christine x
Hi Nic, your garden looks beautiful, I love gardening but sadly I don't have a garden. Such a shame about the new build going up, I think a nice high fence and plenty of climbing plants, hugs xx
You have been busy, looks great and loving the owls..Hugs Lozzy xx
Hi Nic ooh you have made a lovely job of your garden and i love them solar owls saw them just the other day..might have to get some. no wonder you are shattered!!
Shame about the eye sore did they ask you if they could put the scaffold on your property ? and i would be adding a high fence but i do know there is a height limit you may need to follow.

Its looking good Nic, hard work in the garden always pays off. Hope your neighbours get sorted soon, that is a pain.
You've done trojan work Nic! It looks fabulous. When some trees grow and blockout the eyesore it will be ab fab. Nicola x
Goodness, what a lot of hard work, but it all looks fabulous! Especially the gorgeous owls! But what a pain to have that new building so close, it's definitely an eyesore!
love Mags B x
Your garden's looking fab, imagine all your plants in bloom in the summer :-) x
