extreme gardening...
« on: September 16, 2005, 19:09:34 »
I've been asked by a couple of peeps about how steep the slope is in my garden, thought it might give some idea if I posted a pic! Don't think the steep incline shows very well, but best I can do!!! I'm in the process of gradually covering it with plants, as I have to cut the grass with a strimmer at min, and normally end up face down in the Camellia.....  ::)First one is looking at it, second one is looking down.Lottie ;D

It looks steep to me Lottie, especially the view looking at it. The one looking down doesn't give such a good idea of incline.

And another use Lottie - it would make a good "take off" point for all those microlight enthusiasts !  You could start charging them £10 a go !  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Enjoy today to the full.  You are not sure of a tomorrow.

See? I have no head for business... :-\ All these ideas, and I was just using it to fall down. Was tempted with the idea of a slide for the kids, only problem being it's concrete at the bottom, ;) and my washing dries up there.....could be interesting.. :o Lottie

Invest in some 'mini Baby-bels' and have a cheese-rolling contest!

I'd have to get in impartial judge to stop bickering over who had one...and that's just me and OH.... ::) Thanks Dibs! Not up to much this year, ever since I've been a gardener for work, my garden has suffered sever neglect! I have managed to nurture a rather spectacular wasp nest though...! Very proud ...Lottie  ;D
