Its been such a hot sunny day today so this evening we decided to dine out in the garden where we could enjoy the heady perfume of the Jasmine.
This is a close up of Trachelosopermum Jasminoides its perfume is delightful,

and it also looks good, I think this was planted in 2007. The chair was made by hubby to hide the hose-pipe which is fixed to the wall behind it.

He also painted this nature enhanced log, we painted it red because it reminds us of a chinese dragon, what do you think?.

I have tried three times to do this blog and my temper is taking over, if it doesn`t work this time I shall give in.
Hope your day has gone well and you have enjoyed some sunshine.

That chair is brilliant, no sign of any hosepipe, clever hubby you have and I love your dragon Stroller, its grand here and we`ve been dining out since last Saturday, really perks us up to relax outside, although my poor hubby cannot be out in the sun for long as it affects him badly now.......

Lovely blog Stroller - pleased it worked for you. I have had trouble in the past with blogs and it is sooo frustrating!

It's nice to sit out on a warm evening. I'm glad you enjoyed.
The red log does look like a Chinese dragon lol, and I like the chair very much too.

Love the dragon Stroller and chair, what a clever husband you have. I also love your trachelospermum, it looks brilliant and thanks to Gardeners World Live, I know how delicious it smells. I have the variegated one....no flowers as yet, but still quite young:-)

Love the chair, what a great way to hide the drainpipe. the red dragon's great as well :-)

Nothing wrong with your blog Stroller, enjoyed looking at it. I loved that chair. Clever man, your hubby. I wish the Trachelospermum would grow in this garden, but we have too many trees around us . I bought one once when Alan first showed it on the tele , but it didn't do any good at all. Perhaps I should put one in my allotment garden!

BA ... I can remember having a sniff at it at GWLive, btw we are going of to Wales for 2 or 3 days just heading for Llandeilo and taking it from there, PM you when we get back.
Rose ... The blog took four attemps to get it on hence the frayed temper. Good idea for the allotments if you can find a reasonably priced one.
Lijemc ... glad you liked it.
