I have large planters on Artificial Grass but ordinary flower beds at the front with gravel instead of lawn. Our last house had a garden with raised borders front and back and grass so it was high maintenance.

Roughly speaking Blue is outside work for men, Pink is indoors for women. I know I might be shot down in flames now for saying that. ;-)

I have no wish to learn, if it were up to me I would have pots and tubs on top of gravel easy peasy for me. :-D

Oh dear, I am the gardener around here but OH is learning fast :-D :-D :-D. I have some dead heading to do but other than that it needs no other attention. I may well sit out there tomorrow and rub down some more dolls house parts ready to repaint.

He did enjoy his holiday thanks and he got back 10:00 pm Sunday. He knows I'm not a gardener and I did what he said to do, still ruined it though.

How long has he been back and did he enjoy his holiday?.
I have just been having a long chat with my cousin, it is the first time since we went to her sister's funeral in June as it has taken us all a while to get over it. It was so sudden and shocked us all.

:-D He is keen to get it back to how it was til ruined it while he was away, it will take a few days though.

Evening, I spent the morning in the Archive room preparing up some items for the display in September. I stopped at Hobbycraft on the way home to get my click and collect order of stuff for the dolls house and also called in my hairdressers to make an appointment. She has managed to fit me in tomorrow at 4 ,she is so busy as she cannot get any staff and is rushed off her feet. We then realised we were low on milk so went out to the local shop to get some. This afternoon I sat with my feet up in the JCB and just about to do the same :-D :-D :-D.
It was too hot for me to go out into the garden today so your hubby must have been really enthusiastic :-D
