Attack of the Mares Tail

This week has seen us attack the mares tail and bindweed. The far end of the garden is destined to become a wildlife area. As a reluctant gardener this is ideal for me - lots of grass with very little mowing involved. Not that I do much mowing as I suffer from hay fever. I am just thinking of the mower operator, namely Mrs Mark, just call me Mr Considerate!

So this weekend should see me continuing to prepare the ground for the hedge, wild flower lawn and the wildlife pond. The lining for the pond has been in the house for nearly a year now. For those of you who have not been reading the blog since the start, the lining arrived just before the rains of last year. Hopefully we will see the ground prepared over the next few days. The intention is to use the earth removed to fill in the beds and level some of the paths.

And finally...
Easter weekend, several days off work and the weather forecast is... well it could be better but let's see what we can achieve :)
