Some of you might remember when I first got my lottie on 8th October 2007 what a state it was in....Well it's been 6 months, 1 week, 3 days and I thought it was time I took some update pictures. You can see many of my "Before Pics" on my Blog (Link at the bottom).

Ha ha, I've had 3 plot holders look inside my Summerhouse  Wink to check to see if I have a bed in there as I always seem to be there  (they say) Grin.. No bed yet, but who knows, now the heavy work is all done I might be able to sit back and watch everyone one else work while I recline on my sun lounger on my sea view deck   Grin   Grin   Grin

All the rocks around my rock garden I dug up from IN the ground. I didn't know where to put them until I came to tidy up the back and thought I would add some flowers.



Oh that's my pottery Maple Leaf I "Planted" in amongst the flowers  Grin

If you want some of those balls for the tops, I can send you some Debs, I have a few left over. I just cut a little cros in the top and slip them over the poles....Then tie the nets around the pole and the ball too.

Hi Lauren your lottie looks awesome. Hope mine can look half as good in 6 months time.
I forgot to take before photos  Roll Eyes  so i will have to make sure I take some from now on.

Where did you get the balls from you are using with the netting? Are they laundry balls?
Thanks

They came in a pack and they really are for a kids ball pit thingie. When you have several of them they look quite pretty while protecting your face and eyes etc.  Cool

Here are a couple of EBay links for you

That is a plot to be proud of and an inspiration to others  Grin Grin

My idea was to build Liverpool into a bastion of invincibility. Napoleon had that idea. He wanted to conquer the bloody world. I wanted Liverpool to be untouchable. My idea was to build Liverpool up and up until eventually everyone would have to submit and give in. Bill Shankly.

Lauren Your plot is totally magnificent.  I bet the other plot holders are having to look to their laurels.  And with your stunning view as well!

Wow - green with envy - you deserve to have a rest with a glass of something on your decking! 

Welll done Girl!
