Hello! Monday and its all go here at Norwich House!
Jeff, the madman, ignored the dismal weather and put on the gardening clothes. He was sweet enough to put aside his plan of working on the tree to help me put together the garden beds!
I had to do MORE digging out… but that didn’t take too long. We just had to get them lined up and the space wide enough. Of course… I had to deal with a little more concrete!!
Then Jeff screwed the layers together and we hauled each section down to its ‘forever home’
Cardboard that my young cousin Beau dropped off was put to good use as a liner both on the bottom and up the side of the higher ends
Look! Its a ‘Jeff-in-the-Box’
According to my back and legs tonight, I finished up by vastly overdoing things… five barrow loads of logs (including the nights firewood).
I am only going to do the bottom layer in logs/branches, then get the pruning done and bung those in the beds as well before topping up with the good stuff.
They are pretty solid! Now they are in place I can start leveling out the top area ready for the next steps. I am dying for it not to look so manky.
WE however looked manky at the end of it! Should have seen how the mud was sticking! Every time I walked over to the carport to make and pick up a layer, my boots would pick up stones, woodchips and sticks!!
Entertainment this afternoon for Little Moo
Messy start.
Was practically dark for the last shot… hence the blur!
I am looking forward to getting these filled and planting my strawberries!
Now… to take a leaf out of Pips book – time to snuggle down in a warm bed!
Cheers!
