Round and round the garden

The Blackbird: I love gardening. You know, they say that in the garden, it's the closest place to God, you know. And I wait for a nice warm day when I can go and pull a few things up, you know what I mean. - Creature Comforts 2003



Welcome to my garden. Please come in.....






Friends can use the back door
The cat will keep you company






Looking from the house



Look left

Look right


Take a break for a cup of tea


Let's hope it's this
and not
this


Thanks for visiting. Please come again.

Lovely Chris! someone's put a lot of hard work into that garden. Once upon a time, in a land far far away, I once had a garden... and I loved it.

Lets hope we've seen tha last of this wet weather, at least for a few weeks.

Great blog, Chris, esp the pic of the swing-chair (or whatever they're called in England, I've forgotten!) Mrs Tuscan is in fact on the warpath for one right now.

I also saw the Haslemere Players thing - we used to go to Haslemere Hall for the cimena when we lived in Henley Common (5 miles to the south; I also saw the Wisley pic, Mrs T has a friend who works there and we're hoping to cadge a behind the scenes tour of the new glasshouse in September - it looked very impressive at Christmas as work in progress!

Thanks for visiting, Tony, hope you feel the urge to pop in again sometime.

Swing-chair is exactly what we usually call it, or sometimes the swing-thingy. It's a recent purchase , bought when the sun was shining. Just waiting now for the opportunity to sit on it.

You certainly must see the Glass house at Wisley, even without the backstage tour. Very impressive.
