Love all the Georgian houses, and kept so well too.

Got to find it first lol

Lucky you that it folds up....

Lovely blog as usual, kids, don't get me started lol good to have Joe around he obviously cares very much, a good lad.
Love your bench is that new?

San considering the shocking weather, your garden is standing up to it really well, the pond looks brilliant, and I just love the Acer and the red dragon, and as you say we have been very lucky, we are safe and dry......regarding Rolf Harris, look out for a pic soon!!

Your garden looks so tidy San, it makes mine look like a tip! I wish I could go part time now. I love your pond and the cream bench (want one!) x

what a fantastic garden you have it looks great :))))

Glad you had a good time Sandra. I loved it too when Rolf visiited the palace and painted a picture of HRH. HE is so humble, I love him.

There must have been a lot of rich people living in Edinburgh then Sandra.

that made me smile!

It all looks lovely - so neat and well cared for with pretty things all around.

I wrote a poem some years ago about our younger son. It was called ' What is this thing called a duster?'.......He would not have been quite as useful in your garden today!!! He's lovely though!

I bet the scent is so nice too. What a pretty vase!

Beautiful garden Sanbaz.

Great blog San, brilliant way to show all the garden. Its nice to know the layout of someones garden, it helps you understand it more :-)

All looking lovely Sandra, love your pond area and your lovely Acer its so nice to be able to get out in the garden, I spent yesterday doing the same in mine, lots of staking needed and cutting back from the steps and paths, but worth the achey knees and back;0))

What a good idea San I'm sure they'll find a use for them !

A very pretty bunch San I love that jug :o)

Gorgeous Sandra, I agree nothing better than home grown. my Sweet Peas are starting to flower now looking forward to cutting some for the house;0)

You've got a lovely garden Sandra. You've shown some views of it that I haven't seen before ...
Joe is a good son, and that must be a great comfort to you :o)

They're beautiful. You'll never miss a few flowers from the garden Sandra and indoors on a wet day, they can raise the spirits. :-)

That;s a good idea Sandra, I wouldn't be able to throw them either :o)

your garden looks great Sandra. i'm sure you enjoyed having Joe to help out and spend precious time with. and your pond has settled in soooo well ..x

Think boys are more likely to have what I call 'Nut and bolt' brains. The other side of their brain is developed, they are good at mechanical things. Horticulture is not an attractive subject to some of them. Mention Football and they soon switch on. When I asked my son if he would like to see my garden, he said " Why?"
It hurts.

Lovely blog - everything's looking so fresh - must be all the rain!!

nothing wrong with that...boys can be a tad selfish...they need a wee reminder sometimes!

Don't feel guilty San....if I shout loud enough - he does as he is asked! I use a bit of emotional blackmail......
I tell him that I'll remember his help next time he wants to tap me for some money :))))

Good one Sandra!

All looking so good....great to have your son help you. I gave up asking ages ago!!!

Your garden is looking really healthy, makes a change us not getting as much rain as everyone else does'nt it, pleased Joe is at home with you for a while, catch you soon.

Isn`t it lovely to have a helper especially an extra special one, the garden is now looking grand and I love the little white bench in the first picture.
Like you my son gave me a hand to experiment with a go at topary (only a ball shape) he`s just back from hospital had keyhole surgery so couldn`t do anything heavy but it was lovely just having him there.
