The bricklayer came first thing this morning with two of the workmen who had been working on the garden earlier in the week. He got to work on the two retaining walls including finishing off the incomplete footings for the wall at the end of the garden and organised the laying of the footpath.
I love the new wall around the patio area 
The shed needs building and placing in the right position and there are a few rough edges that need sorting out. This work is scheduled for Monday, so tomorrow, we need to tackle the ivy that is invading the back fence…
The weather was favourable, allowing us to dine on the patio and enjoy our garden.
And the bees are loving the sunflower that was a gift from one of our resident birds
Very nice CherryPie, enjoy:)
Thanks Angus
some tidy work done there, CP. i like the shots of the table and the close up on the flower.
The garden is looking better than it has done in a long time!
This is going to clash with your travelling itinerary. You’ll not wish to leave the back garden.
When I am not travelling I love to sit at home and ‘rest a while’. My garden space is now turning into something I always wanted from it
The sunflower was a special gift from the birds and the bees love it. Yesterday I was blessed with a small frog sitting on my back door sill as I closed the window blinds
What more could a girl ask for
It all looks lovely! Such a change. I can just imagine the joy of sitting outside with a glass of something chilled as the end of the day approaches.
Yes it will be lovely when it is finished and when it stops raining. The workers didn’t arrive today so we have a shed that is only half built at the moment!!
What? No hot tub!
Apparently not
Did you watch Amazing Spaces Shed of the Year?
You should also build a rotating shed!
Maybe Harry Potter is at the end of my garden. I have yet to find out
