STOPPING THE STONES MOVING!

STOPPING THE STONES MOVING!

I always have problems with the stones in the garden moving, leaves dropping on them, and generally looking untidy. I was so pleased when I found this solution: you tip it into a watering can and spread it over the stones. The first attempt used up the whole container, as it all came out so fast. When I opened another container, the spreading was much slower, as some of the holes were blocked up with the solution. This made it spread over a much bigger area, which was also much more economical, as one of these containers cost £30 in…

FOLKESTONE HAS A NEW LIBRARY AT LAST!

It was great to see that the council had at last given us a new library after months of arguing about the old building on Grace Hill, which I must admit was a lovely building, but the repairs were just too much.

VISTABELLA GOLF, ORIHUELA

MICKYS BAR The outside seating is so nice at this bar, very relaxing and zen. I am going to try to recreate this sort of thing in my garden at home. The worse thing about getting your garden looking good is that as soon as it rains you have to store all the cushions somewhere. Wouldn’t it be good if summer stayed warm with no rain, but then the water butts would be empty and we would be complaining about not being able to water the garden. We are never happy lol. A bottle of white wine is €7.50 during…
