    Wouldn't suit my lottie but would look dead cool down the garden but it's not going to happen

    Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

    Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

        You're right it would look good but I don't think I've got any paths wide enough and I can't afford it anyway!

            yes looks very nice. Can't see how being (as the listing states) reduced from £400.00 to £380.00 saves you £100.00 though.

            Or have I missed something?
            It is the doom of man, that they forget.

              Very lovely - pity they didn't squeeze the price a bit more than twenty quid!!
              Happy Gardening,

                    It makes the Wilko one look quite reasonable

                        Snadger, I simply refuse to believe that a man of your skills and ingenuity couldn't make one from odds n sods! There must be some sort of oversize barrel/small silo (from the scrapyard) that could be cut up and adapted, or if you went for hexagonal(?) rather than circular, you could just about get away with using lengths of wooden pallet fixed together?

                        I was feeling part of the scenery
                        I walked right out of the machinery
                        My heart going boom boom boom

                        I've come to take you home."

                          The cogs in the head have been turning today......planning and scheming at the allotment. Will have to move my arbour (made from salvaged timber) further up the plot. If I want to make a statement it needs to be at the bottom of the plot where I can ogle it in al its glory!
                          The hexagon or octagon sounds good from pallets and would blend in with my chicken coop and the pathe would be either the sixth or eighth side!
                          You could even use the piping used for polytunnels I suppose, but that blue plastic would need to be toned down somehow.

                          Leave it with me and watch this space!

                          PS Why is your avatar upside down Seahorse..................did it not used to be tuther way up? Have you moved to OZ or started working for an alternative channel 4 recently?

                            Never be afraid to try something new.
