I've had loads of help and tips, not to mention cheerleading from people on this site since I got my lottie back last year. So I just thought I'd put a quick update on here, hopefully it will inspire anyone who's looked at their lottie and thought OMG I'll never get it done, you will, I did.........

From this

To this

And a big thanks to everyone who's helped (and told me off for being impatient!!!) ;D

Cor thats looks great! How long has it taken you?

posie · « **Reply #17 on:** March 24, 2008, 21:05:18 »

Um, since the middle of August I think. Much strimming went on for months on end! My mate Ms P gave me a hand with the paths, because she's far more particular than I am, otherwise they'd have ended up v wonky with bits missing where I've thrown temper tantrums rofl. ;D

And now you can make it all green again- but your choice if plant this time! ;)
Well done you - I do hope you have a v smug grin plastered over your face, very well deserved, I'm hoping the garden pixies will have started on mine when I get down there in an hour!

erk, wish mine looked like that - hmm maybe it does if I take a long shot of it, no zoom, ha ha
well done, hope you get loads of yummy stuff out of it.
