Managed to finally get the paving done behind the shed this weekend, so now theres a potting bench area, the space marked out for the polytunnel (now used for storage of pallets, scrap wood and bricks) with paths around each and between the shed. Grand.
As usual it ended up being a voyage of discovery; I dug up a plastic freezer drawer and an iron bottomless bucket, both full of fetid mud and rubbish, a load of buried plastic sheeting and carpet, and about 20 AA batteries. I mean, what's wrong with people?!
