Welcome to family, friends and visitors. Here you will find interesting (hopefully) pictures of my part of the world, news of our household and probably, long ramblings about anything that catches my interest.

Working On The Veg Garden.

After a leisurely lie-in watching the trees thrashing in the wind and a small bird bringing food to its nest above our window, I ventured out to work on the veg garden. The bed only measures 7ft x 16ft but it is going to take quite a bit of work. This is the only place I have top soil in the garden and even that only extends down for 6". Under that is a hard packed layer of clay and stones. I decided to take off the top soil from the small path and remake the path using sub soil dug out from the bed. I certainly would not be able to grow any root crops there or at least the carrots would have to be very short. And now some more Eden pictures mainly from the tropical biosphere.
There is quite a lot of art around the place that uses re-cycled materials.
