          Looks fab, you have really worked hard.. Well done, looking forward to putting some veggies in it now i bet.
          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

                  I've put too much effort into my potager type lottie now to add curves .....................but the next lottie I get (if i get chucked off the ones I've got!) will have curved paths and curved beds.............just to be different!

                  Looking good Fiona!
