Going to be doing some work at Thornleigh this week - it is great that they have some willing volunteers who help keep the gardens looking lovely all year, and several of them are around during the half term week. I enjoy working with them. Let's hope we get some sunshine.

Anyone else noticing how fast the leaves are dropping off the trees now - our garden is covered in them, despite Nicky's best efforts to sweep and rake. She's quite good at it so if anyone needs a 'class B' gardener I can rent her out.............(she's going to love that)

Feels very autumnal today - looks like I got this log shed built for one of my customers just in the nick of time. This demonstrates how you can create a useful space using largely recycled materials. Start collecting your spare wood and book me for an early October build as I am pretty busy till then!

I've also been busy repairing a garden pond waterfall - I don't know about Helen, but Ted was certainly happy with the results! I did enjoy his company. Thanks Ted...

A step up from shabby chic to just chic. This project kept me busy over the bank holiday as I upgraded these steps ready for our friends' wedding. It was a pleasure to help with this project for a happy bride! (and bride groom of course)

Apparently there is a bit of 'shed envy' going on up at the allotments - here is the one I installed for our friends Sylvia and Peter complete with plumbing to catch some water in the dry season (if we ever get one!)

These are 'the rail thing'. If you have garden steps which do not feel too safe, then this might be the answer. It was nice to meet the little dog next door!

Want to cover up an unsightly drain? Well, here's one solution..... and not too much of a drain on your purse either. You can knock one up from some leftover decking wood or other bits and bobs. (Or even better, ask your local handyman to do it for you)

Whoops, I didn't mean to do that..... top tip when cutting hedges, always use a circuit breaker just in case you do what I did (actually this was deliberate, I wanted a cordless hedge trimmer). LOL
