what a lovely site for the pond. What are you going to plant in it? I have spare yellow iris and a medium pink water lily if you are interested. just pm your address to me.

Good one Np..the goblins and gargoyles sound like an excellent idea !Looking forward to seeing the completed project !

great work NP. i look forward to the finished product. i know its going to be great.;-))

Wow they dont come like that around here,Lol, brilliant NP, really like this one,

Nice work NP, i have started a pond for fish, but oblong, and i will have to settle for a fountain as i dont have your artistic talent with the Gargoyls etc,
However i really look forward to seeing yours,

It,s coming on brilliant NP , you have so many talents !
corners are strange thing to make look good , this is an ideal way to use that space , can,t wait to see the finished project..
Just be careful of your back !!!

Is there no end to your talents, Np? Bricklaying now!!! LOL. Good for you. It will be a great feature in your garden.

Nice work NG :0)

Loking good Nosey. Can't wait to see the waterfall.

Hi NP ~
Is the doggie fountain going in this area ?

Wow Leigh. It's really coming along nicely. Well done. How's your back.....did you get your friend to do all the heavy stuff??

Beautifully captured expression Np..........

well done you. looks like spring has sprung in your paint box.

looking good,nice one

She's coming along great Nosey. You sure have a talent.

Oo 'eck ...I'm gunna keep me head down I think....... snowed here for a few minutes today - what's the weather up to?!

No, I haven't seen that tyres Grand Designs (actually it's on now but I'm only interested in the last 15minutes when you see the finished house lol) I want to build mine out of straw bales.......kinda timber framed with bale infill and rendered all over with a breathable lime plaster...... Just can't afford to buy a house in this area....Herefordshire is one of the lowest-earnings places in England but has one of the highest property prices....mostly I think due to rich folk taking early retirement in the big cities and buying up property here and also holiday homes all pushing the prices up :-(

I love the sun and moon too. I also like the little demon in the last photo.
It looks like you have your work cut out for you Leigh. Keep us updated with your progress. Look after your back and get your pal to do all the heavy stuff....its his water feature after all. :o)

Best kind.

So true. It's one of the things I like about GOY. Everyone seems so friendly and are willing to share a joke.

Definitely Your are not wrong. In fact I believe we are saying exactly the same thing, just in different ways. You already said that you would help anyone and I would like to think that I would too. I think you'll agree that it's a great feeling you get when you have successfully helped someone and I think that more people should try it.

Nothing wrong with using what you need to to survive but it's not the locals who make the millions. It's big business which exploits the locals that make the money. If you need to kill to eat, that is one thing but if you kill to make a fortune or for fun that is something else.
I don't ahve a problem with the surgeon who makes good money from saving a life but his services should be more widely available to those peoples who cannot afford his treatment. Again money talks, even surgeons, for whom I have the greatest respect and admiration, chase the big bucks. The proof of this is all around us. How many surgeons prefer to work privately rather than for our health service. How many surgeons give their services free to the poor in this or any other country. I'll bet that the number is miniscule compared with the number of surgeons there are.
Please don't think that I am picking on one group of people, I am not. This is only an example off common practice among all of humanity. We look after number one with little regard for others.
I take my hat off to those who give of their time and energies to help others and the world would be a better place if we all followed their example.
Sorry Nosey but I do feel very strongly on this subject.

We went to a garden centre on Sun, one that i'd never been to before, and i thought of you seeing all the unusual garden ornaments. You must look after your back, It's the only one you have.

Thats a man size portion Nosey That would feed me for a week LOL

Carnt wait to see the finished product Hope the weather picks up

Wierdo, eh? Cheek when you are doing his water feature, Np!

I love the sun and moon, too! Did you design/make it?

Glad you agree Gilli. You will never convince the haves that they have enough. Greed is everywhere, sharing is taboo, money before people, business before love,. There has to be an alternative but, somehow money and or power always ruins any that arise.

Blimey Leigh....Your bangers and mash look fantastic. I think a bigger plate might be a good investment.....your gravy is just about leaking all over. LOL.

It's looking great Leigh. Fantastic.

Sorry I'm late to your blog NP. Lovely blog. Do you have Pirannahs in there too?
I'm totally in agreement with the soapbox....There are a few humans who are clued in to what is happening but I think the majority don't understand or don't care and will cause the end of all of us.
This world is too much a slave to the almighty dollar (or pound or rupee or whatever). We can't do this or that or the giant corporations won't have their $3 billion dollar profits.....Someone won't be making $10 million a year anymore and will have to give up their private jet or their 10th car....Money, money money.....Some people just can't get enough.....Well, that's my soapbox....sorry.
