Its lasted nearly a week. Coming to an end now though. Anyway - last night we finally got around to cutting the grass at the back, it was a joint effort; whilst I raked, dh mowed and we got it done in 20 mins. I must say though, it looks GORGEOUS.... really lush and green. I don't know why, perhaps because we haven't touched it for weeks, maybe its all the rain followed by sun or maybe the seed I was throwing down over the summer has suddenly taken off. Anyway whatever, it looks really nice.
I have been in touch with our local GC and they have a Virginia Creeper.... I'm going to buy it on Friday for the east facing fence and also some more grass seed to seed over where I've planted the bulbs. Then maybe the garden will be finished. How many times have I said that? Really though.. after that there really will be NO ROOM for anything else.
Except for a climbing rose at the other side of the arch. Best get that Friday too.
