Nice pics Eric - plenty of colour. :)  However, I had  bit of a problem when trying to select certain photos to view in larger format.  I clicked on pic No. 31 - when the larger version came up I was told it was pic No. 33 but in fact the photo which appeared was pic No. 23 - strange or what :-\
Happy gardening all...........Pat

Love the pictures Eric. :)  Nice to see your 'spread' at last.  Really loved the long walk with the wide borders.  A bit like 'versailles' in Geoff Hamiltons garden.
Take time to stop and smell the flowers.

How very odd. Patricia. it must be something to do with the difficulty I had getting anything on to Hp over the last couple of day.
Second reply.
I have just named and sorted the photos anf guess what?
It still does not show you the one you select, Tres odd!

Whatever order they come up in it all looks wonderful and lots of hard work I am sure.
Equality isn't everyone being the same, equality is recognising that being different is normal.

Great pictures Eric. Dead jelous of the garden as always  ;)

I had the same trouble as the otheres with veiwing the large versions. Odd its doing that  ???

A way around it is to go into the large veiw and then move to the next and so on thus staying in large veiw. It is a bit time consuming, but at least (if your PC is fast enough that is) you get to see the pic you want.  ;D

garden? that's not a garden - that's an estate! Serious - how big is it? And where are these warts you speak of? It all looks enviously perfect to me!

No ride on mower, just a self propelled petrol driven one Takes about a day to do it all.
The garden is just under an acre, but photos always make things look bigger.
You have to look carefully to see the warts.
I went back in and named all the pics and then sorted them, they still come up in the wrong order. I would probably have to download them to my computer, re-order them and upload again. Time consuming.

Why are we always swamped with gardners showing off ?

Fingle - Lighten Up!!

Does it matter?

A garden can be an allotment just as an allotment can be a garden.  We still grow things be it in a lottie or a plotie.

Apologies all.....had my grumpy head on yesterday.

And we can all do with seeing flowers when its a bad day in the office
