    Sadly my Dad gave my train set away ages ago

    It was a Horby 3 rail complete with Mallard

    Fruitcake - look at your garden as a blank canvas

    A few years ago, mine was gravel and weeds

    Then I met this lady at LeRoc

    She made a drawing of what it should like

    I don’t think, she thought I would actually do it

    But one has to do something, when not dancing

    Well if dee is brave enough to post that pic of her garden, I suppose I should do mine. I must point out that this is the best it is ever likely to look (until we move out that is.)

    Re: Get your ass in the grass....

    I was in a hoose in St Monans for a barbie last Sunday...friend of a friend... never been before and they had an average sized garden but boy was it gorgeous! They had a huge pond, a rock waterfall and huge fish, frogs and plants in the pond. You would never go out! It really was "another room" and added so much to the house. There were wind chimes at the bottom of the garden, too. Very tranquil. The owner said it took ages to build (she id it herself) and she seemed unaware of how much impact it had on everyone else. Gorgeous and well worth the effort I'd say.

    Re: Get your ass in the grass....

    Oh dear, I have got to admit I am buying a maisonette in Crayford, and one of its selling features was the garden, with it's rambling path, pond, and decked area. it is set out in such a way that one does not see the next area until you aproach it and looks absolutely gorgeus, especially when compared to a neighbours garden which is a large rectangle of lawn. This will actually mean that I may have to re-look through this thread once I move in to discover things about plants, instead of ripping it all out and concreting over it all.

    Re: Get your ass in the grass....

    Since the weather's nice, I thought I would resurrect this thread
    {BTW I don't have a fish-eye lense, so had to stitch and twist some photos together - the decking isn't that esceresque }

    I adore gardening and have bought a big greenhouse this year - it's currently like a jungle in there. I am very proud to say I have tomatoes, courgettes, aubergines, cucumbers and peppers! I'm afraid I've got a bit carried away and shall be feeding the forum! Oh ....and I put in about 300 bedding plants....all home grown! Not that I'm blowing my own trumpet or anything...........

    Hmm, sounds like we should get you together with Beo who seems to be into the cooking for a forum dinner with all those lovely veggies growing...

    God, and I've all I've got is some window boxes suffering from greenfly. Wish I had a garden

    Re: Get your ass in the grass....

    well with those ingredients I'd probably add a selection of beans and make a vegetarian healthy option chilli with wild rice

    or some nice chicken breast , into kebabs with the assorted veg with a honey and ginger glaze roasted over an open flame, served with a cous cous salad.

    I'll be sous chef for the veggie part then! What about a nice ratatouille? Or grilled veggie kebabs with a bit of halloumi between?
