Now you might think this site would be cause for complaint:
but it kept my garden alive, and absolved me from any feeling that I really ought to saunter down Cowley Road into Oxford and DO SOMETHING with my time off. So it was welcome instead.Lots of time cosied up with a good book, plenty of time cuddling with the girls, nice food, a choice of company or peaceful solitude. Very nice.

Bob with our new gate. Hurrah! A new edge to the platform which wasn't a ramp too. The whole not entirely finished but a distinct improvement and the promise of his return if it doesn't rain tomorrow.A lazy afternoon with friends, a party at Rainbows for Mog, a Grannie to help put the girls to bed, and soon my very own wonderfully comfortable bed.

How perfectly relaxing... I'm ready for a stay too, just wish it were possible!!
YAY for a gate, work done and the promise of more work to come!
Hugs & Prayers!!
Sounds like you were able to have a great couple of days or so to relax and get refreshed. How wonderful.
