Mini Patio Takes Shape

The corner between the south end of the annex and the embankment has been a problem area from day one but the felling of trees in neighbouring gardens has bathed it in morning and early afternoon sunshine.

It is also sheltered from most wind directions.   It would be an ideal place for a swing chair.  Trouble was, it was uneven and not quite large enough.   Enter ex commando Steve Roberts with his skills and inventiveness.   Here he is:

Note the pint of water!   Not the sort of pint that Steve used to drink before it nearly killed him and he took the pledge.   His addictions are now Facebook and his allotment.



We had to line the thing up with one of the straight edges (thank you planners) but the result will blend in splendidly, trust me.   From a problem area we shall have created another magical corner.
