Finishing Off.

After a brilliant few days in Lincolnshire, visiting old friends and being extremely well entertained at a friends 50th Birthday weekend, we returned with Husband sporting an extremely Bad back. Can't stand up without help, let alone tie his shoe laces.

Yesterday's trip to the Osteopath has yielded a slight improvement today, so as I am no longer required for every little task - and there is a game of footie on the telly to be avoided at all costs, I decided to finish an unfinished job in the garden.

Remember the two Rocket Launchers we inherited? You may remember that we took the first one up just after Christmas. What you didn't know was that a few weeks ago, in true 'Recycle' mode we relaid eight of the slabs in the front lawn to make a path from the front gate to the door. Not having quite enough slabs, we left the gate end unfinished, needing about 3 or 4 more slabs, when we finally get round to taking the other patio up.
After some considerably hot work ( it was another scorching day here), consultation with Husband about which shapes to put where and much help from Her Ladyship, the path is now complete. Well that is apart from the grass growing over the edged to disguise the strange shapes. I must point out that most of this was already done by both of us, I can't take the credit for it all on my own!

Did I mention it was hard work?

There is still a long way to go with the patio removal, but it will be nice to see the back of it.

By the looks of that sky, here comes the rain that we so desperately need.
