  • A lovely garden VG. I like the spiders...I presume they are painted on the log??

    I hope to finish planting my hedge this week, it's not a million miles long its just the tough ground and my slow work

    • The spiders and ants are made in Africa from recycled metal. I buy them from a stallholder at the RHS show. I also have lizards, a mouse, heron and hens dotted around my playground

        • The heron is fantastic - but he wasn't easy to bring home on a crowded bus! Very spiky

            They are fantastic. I love garden metal work, but even at those prices I am still too tight to pay. I am going to have to go on the scrounge and try and make some ants. It is all your fault VC

            • You're most definitely not rubbish NG
              The metal thingies are a lot cheaper at the shows. I think 6 ants and a spider were on offer for £5/10 when I bought them years ago.
              Make one yourself - it can be your challenge of the month

                    • I have been so rubbish at this, but i am doing it just forgetting to write it down.

                      This week i have started to do some weights nothing massive just 2 kilo weights, i have a bad left shoulder so trying to build the muscle around it to hopefully improve it.
                      I grow 70% for us and 30% for the snails, then the neighbours eats them
