Weekend 15 and 16 – Levelling of the garden, making space for garden stairs and plenty of team work!

Welcome back after a super long break! What can we say…it started with Monday the 7th of May bank holiday and after that we became lazy and spoiled by weather all together! But that absolutely does not mean that we did not do anything – quite the opposite! We have Read more…

Weekend 9 – Setting up garden drainage (final attempt) and a surprise behind retaining wall

Welcome back! As a contrast to last weekend weather, this weekend we had 12-13 degrees outside! Despite the nice temperature, on Saturday it was still raining for half a day on and off so it was a bit tricky to let the camera record our progress. We devoted the whole Read more…
