• Managed to get up on the wall yesterday and push most of it off.

    It’s a matted blend of soil (assuming composted leaf matter), ivy, and tree.

    I had asked the council to sort their trees and shrubs out on the other side but they apparently do it barely twice a year.

    Also made a start on the nature pond. There was a circle of stones filled with rubble that I assume was the old pond filled in. Should be deep enough but going to make it just-so before lining.

    Hopefully the pond will tempt all the frogs that currently hide in the fence. They need to earn their keep and destroy the slugs.

  • That's a great wall to have at the back of your garden - and much better for having the ivy removed.

    I think we've got the same spade as well, it's a beast.

  • Aha yes I permanently borrowed it from dad. It has survived some misuse in the garden already.
