  • Progress on the Plot

    Just looking at some photos which I've been taking of the plot since we got hold of it last autumn. Is quite satisfying looking over it as you can see significant progress from a very overgrown field to something which almost looks like an lottie in just over 6 months!

    Here's some piccies showing progress and I'll post some more in a minute

    Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

    Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

    The piccies above show progress until about a month ago and these are more recent ones, including my friend finishing off the wildlife pond.

        Thanks, you don't realise how much you've done until you look back which is why I'm taking so many piccies!

          I have huge respect for people who take on plots looking like that and tame them. We got ours in winter, so although it was an overgrown field the weeds were dormant and didn't need chopping down to see the end of it, plus we had no brambles to deal with, a major plus point!

                Good effort - well done that lass.

                I try and stand in the exact same position and do a kind of time-lapse photo. Does make you feel good about it all doesn't it?

                Keep 'em coming.

                    Looks great. I like the neatness of the raised beds. LOVE the wildlife pond!
