Adam, Gary and Meko after garden clearing

The beginning of the great garden updo.  The deck looks so much better that Adam tells me we need to cut everything back.  So after a lovely lunch or was it dinner he forces Gary and to a lesser extent me to help him clear out the debris.

I've never seen any one so quick and decimating with the secateurs. Slash, chop, bash, rip out - boom! The back garden is now tidy.  I've given him a budget and next week, Easter Bank holiday weekend we will get cracking.  So exciting.  I've never really been a garden person before but I am looking forward to this small space.
