Yesterday should have been our first trip out in the bongo.
Sadly it got poorly about half an hour after hubs picked it up last Tuesday so it went straight back, under warranty for a repair.
This meant our first mini camping trip had to be cancelled :( gutted
Instead we had a day in the garden,
hubs is doing a cracking job, lots of gorgeous things are growing
Remember last year we made a little sun corner at the top of the garden
hubs has continued to work on this area and has now started on the dumping ground at the other end!
another lovely little picket fence currently being installed at the end of the veg patch to replace an assortment of bits of mis matched wood, then the area will get flattened, lined and filled with slate,
Then were aiming to get one of these
and make a little seaside themed sitting area
lots of blue pots and grasses topped with shells
and fairy lights of course!
And then there was my vintage purchase
Unfortunately the brown striped one died from old age and woodworm but the grey stripe one is ready to be revamped, a little project for me..
The garden is really starting to take shape now Its looking good and will be fab when hubs has finished, it is all 1 sided though, the other side of the garden is the hounds grass/dirt running track...he does occasionally attempt his own hound version of gardening by digging big holes for us!
this is what it looked like last summer ! you can see the dumping ground at the end of the veg plot, its a nice little suntrap at the end of the day
After a days work we decided to make the most of the great weather and head down to the local pub on the river for something to eat, even the hound came along, the boys left with the hound when they had eaten thend hubs and I enjoyed some time together before a walk home along the river
The rest of the evening was spent with a vino sat in the garden listening to music and enjoying being outdoors
just like a little mini camping trip !
sometimes you don't have to go far to enjoy a simple life!
