Default Tom's Garden Project

Hey guys and girls, MORE PHOTOS UPLOADED 03/08/2012

Most of you know i started landscaping my garden last year as it was boring and not a very usefull, well finally after months on and off, planning and sourcing verious bits it is comming together and ive started sorting the photos out.

The garden is not finished but fingeres crossed it will be before the end of the month (weather permitting).

A BIG! thanks goes out to Owenski, Amanda(Our lass), YC, Paul the 6th and everyone else who has helped.

link to dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/bt5cpiaxrd0nmkw/nFd01B-wqe#/

on a personal note, i think doing it DIY style has saved me 5k+ easily i am very proud but i am so fed up of carrying house hold buckets through the house to put in the skip (of which i have filled a 4 yard and most of an 8 yard) by this way next time im hiring a crane and digger

there will be an org BBQ invite when its done.

Regard tom.

Pic 46/47 - 'Turbo' the greatest dog that ever was!

Shame no one got a pic of me with the pick axe. Like giving a toddler a kitchen knife to play with...

Glad to see these pics up pal, the transformation is astonishing, better than I think either of us even thought it would be.
Can't wait to get it finished and see the full thing - good times!

Fancy helping with my garden. Tis about 100'x50' and seems to eat up every spare weekend I can find!

P.S. Looks good, and some nice ideas I may well pinch.
