Still some strimming to do and my fruit bed to finish which is behind the shot, but all in all I think I can safely say I've earned a VERY large drink! And I ain't talking cocoa!   ;D ;D

Whoops! Sorry Spade just realised I posted this in the wrong thread, meant it to go in the "What did you do in the garden today" thread.  Sorry for hijacking!  :-\ :-[  8 hours of sun obviously bad for the brain.
