Through the front and side window...

Welcome to Karen Gimson via Bloglovin.

We have done yet more cutting back in the front gravel garden and at last, it is beginning to look a lot neater. We just need a few really cold days for it to stop growing:
I have now autumn/winter pruned the roses more than once!

The neighbour has finally changed half his fence between our dining room and them. It went from a tatty very old fence to this as he removed half the panels:
To this:
It is tall and bright tan but oddly enough, seems to throw more light into our dining room so for the moment, we won't be painting it.

He was going to do the whole job himself but we kept telling him, he really wouldn't be able to manage. There is a huge difference between putting in wooden posts and attaching panels to them, as opposed to holding concrete posts in the correct place, leaving them to set, before lifting the panels skyward to insert them.

Just the other half to do then we will be 'shut back in' again.

  1. It looks so much better with a wood view than the bricks on the side of his house. It will set any planting off wonderfully :-)

    1. They aren’t gardeners so we waited patiently for it to go up!

  2. Hurray for progress!
    That's the same sort of fencing we have chosen for when we fence off part of the drive and the back of the house.

  3. I really like the looks of the fence. I think the colour reflects the light.

    God bless.
