The remaking of the lottie paths, lots of hard work but the result is worth it.

Well EJ, 2/3 of the lottie is flower garden (since we don't have a garden at home) and 1/3 is veggies. All the green stuff you see will at some point have flowers.

Btw. strange word 'chuffed', my pc-dictionary translates it to mean surprised, is that what you meant?

That is lovely Ina -you can do mine someday :).

You need a dictionary of colloquial (needed a dictionary to spell that!) english

from the Cambridge online dictionary :
chuffed
adjective [after verb] UK INFORMAL
pleased or happy:
He was really chuffed with his present.

which was better than dictionary.com
chuffed :
To produce or move with noisy puffing or explosive sounds

at least I hope it was E-J :)

Wonderful path Ina, and well worth all that hard work.  I love the way it winds around too, it looks very attractive. Your lottie looks beautiful, have started putting some flowering plants at our allotment this year to make it more colourful.   :) busy_lizzie

Thank you so much, it's nice to have a place to show off the hard work. Braw and barrie no less!
Wicker, you did it on pupose!!! You knew my English-Dutch pc-dictionary (a cheap, limited one at that) wouldn't have these words in it, maybe it's not even English but Scottish or Welch or something foreign but thank you anyway (I think, hahaha).

Still, in my opinion, the price for the hardest worker and most amazing results goes to Doris Pinks with her before and after pictures.

Thanks again folks. I can't take all the credit since Clint and I did the work together, I'll share the nice comments with him.
