|
|
Made a start today with the help of Paul (MJ)..actually he done most the work I just ate biscuits,bacon sarnies and drank lots of coffee!
We managed to get all three sides foamed today(just) had a few incidents where it looked like things were going wrong but that was down to us being impatient I think. All sorted though ready for the next step which will be adding the pva,substrate mixture on Saturday.Heres a few snaps of it so far,not much to look at presently but it will take shape soon enough.Thanks again Paul for your help much appreciated.

Thanks mate..yep Titchmarsh is in charge of the planting! Just as well really as if it were left to me it would end up with daffodils in there..
Haven't decided whats going in this one tbh..so many to choose from.Would like something quite large and bold though. _________________

Looks great! It's always nice to see a 'before' pic, so that we can be amazed by the 'after'!
Good job! _________________
