    Finally pics of my new garden - which I haven't seen yet!

    I've never seen my new house and I wont until I move over to Belfast on the 21st of April but I've FINALLY got pics of the garden!

    My 1st impression is; decent space, blank canvas, lots of potential and sunshine! But what is with the grass?? (If you can call it that?)

    What do you guys think?

    Grass!!!!? Good size blank canvas though. Probably as hard and compacted as concrete, but it'll keep you busy!

            Ooh, Victoria! I bet your green fingers are itching to get cracking on that.
            Its a nice, manageable size. My only grouse is that builders always, ALWAYS put those damn oil tanks in such blumming STOOPID positions! Still,nothing that a bit of trellis and some sweetpeas couldn't put right!
            Good luck with it and keep us updated with plenty of piccies!

                      I find it amazing that you can be so cheerful about having to move every couple of years, or so! I would find it very frustrating, and would lack the enthusiasm to do anything constructive, knowing that I had to leave it all, or rip it all up again in a few years. Congratulations, and big ((HUGS)) to you!

                        What a fantastic plot, you are very lucky to have so much ground to work with. Wishing you all the best with the move and establishing your new garden.
                        When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. ~Author Unknown

                          Tell your husband that decking is ok if you want to make a home for rats.

                          Patio everytime, decking is a passing phase, that is not really suited to out climate.
