The bike is trapped in the garage surrounded by brezze block, cement bags and all sorts of landscaping stuff.

Those pictures make me long to start planting things

[bobsnicholson]

Bee, you will be horrified when you see the finished job

[Beelady]

It's going to have fake grass isn't it? Or more likely no grass at all. I give up with you Bob. I really do. I would send you a picture of mine so you can see what you're missing. You'd probably hate it!

Fake Grass, Astro Turf darling, astro turf

[Beelady]

It wounds me deeply, Bob. It's still wrong

[bobsnicholson]

Bee, what would you rather do, Mow the daft lawns and weed the borders OR ride the bike............nuff said (and don't be fippent and say you can do both??? you know i am joking)

[Beelady]

I have a new toy. A battery operated mower. So far it's awesome and I can do the whole job, including the verge outside the garden where all the visitors bike parking is in 15 minutes. I need the cuttings to keep the compost heaps nice and hot, so they break down fast and I need the compost to grow the flowers to sell, so it's part of my job really. But I do enjoy it a lot more then I used to, so now I have time to do both without rushing. I guess you have to really like gardening to keep working at it, but I love it

We will have lot's of real stuff in the gardens. We decided nearing our 70s we would try to minimise the amount of work needed to be done in the garden, Astro Turf seemed the obvious answer. Both Shirley and i enjoy "pottering" so we have ensured there will be plenty of colour stuff to do. Another important factor for us was the fact we spend so much time away.

Part of the project
