A nicely varied week.

Monday l am maintaining a garden l designed and planted a few years ago-it is a delight to see it coming into fruition although l have to constantly fight the Gunnera back. Also wondering how to add more late summer/autumn color as everything is coming up to early. Tuesday again maintenance in exchange for dog walking when l am away-just love this cash free work. The rest of the week l am in London working on-believe it or not-a communal woodland garden in Finchley. This was a complete wilderness when l started but now looking much more like a garden and there is to now be an annual garden party -great see gardens bring people together.Have just added a picture but only got text-help.

"I've been running a Toro ProStripe 560 for several years.  I bought it mainly because of the 3 speed belt driven gearbox so I have control over the speed and the ability to feather the clutch, so to speak.  It also lays down nicer stripes than the…"
