Not seeking advice (unless you have any!). Just felt a little proud as I just built a raised bed out of building rubble! :-)

great recycle project, and darn useful one too!Never test the depth of the water with both feet
The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory....
Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

(Aloysia citrodora - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
Well, we could not afford bricks, and we wanted a kitchen garden. We also wanted to get rid of all this dumped rubble... A few months later it clicked Whole raised bed built for £10 (about 15€). 50€ (£45) for the top-soil, including having it delivered, and £5 for plants I did not have; I'd grown the strawberries from runners, aubergines and beans from seed, tomatoes from 'armpits'. Only bought Amparo's herbs. We are poor (and we know it!), but it was a great five-day project, just to see if it could be done!
I have to say I'm proud of it, and much prouder than if I'd spent £100 on bricks to do it

Our England is a garden, and such gardens are not made
By singing-'Oh how beautiful!" and sitting in the shade,
While better men than we go out and start their working lives
At grubbing weeds from gravel paths with broken dinner-knives. ~ Rudyard KiplingComment

Also, may I ask what herbs you grow / would grow? I mentioned the few we have (parsley etc) - what others? Thinking sage, chives etc, but as we've not done this before, and I'm not a very good cook, I would be interested to hear what others' love to add to their cooking...Comment
