Or lake as my family laughingly refer to it!!

It is getting there...........now if I can just win the rollover tonight I could get my decking bought to cover the black membrane at the back! ;) (I suppose tho that would mean actually buying a lottery ticket! :-\)

Thanks all, managed to drag some big bits of sandstone from my Mum's garden this weekend (there goes the hernia!! ;D) so the edging is nearly completed.
Wacked back the big laurels at the back (had seen some sandstone lurking there) got a bit carried away, but on the plus side we now have 4 foot more garden! ;D
(And 2 nights of bonfires...yipee!)
So now have moved the leafmold pile and built a proper compost bin out of pallets!
It is all just sooooooooo exciting, but the housework is suffering............... :-\
