Front yard.....

The front yard has finally been started, I know, it took us long enough...
...yesterday Tony started on the garden bed along side the drive, so far he has levelled it out and put the sleepers around it to form its border, today he thought he had the easy job, doing the garden bed under the study window, so he levelled it, started putting the sleepers in and ran into concrete...yep the overspill from the pour, now the garden bed looks like its a grave for a long tall skinny person, what should have taken about a half hour to do ended up taking him three quaters of the day, at least he found a use for all the dirt he took out of the bed, it now has made a level walkway to the side gate..hooray!!

So, what did i do while he was doing this, i hear you ask...decided that i really should give the side gate and front part of the fence its second coat..glad i did cos it looks much nicer now, I also finished off the fence in the spa area then gave it its second coat too.

Came back from painting the spa fence to find that Tony was just finishing off tidying the front yard...it looks so much better.

Yesterday we also finally put up our house number, so now you can find us :)

...then...luxury, we finally got around to having a spa....was it good...no, heavenly was more like it.
