Around the garden

We were fed up with the brick wall that separates the garden from our patio.

This is how it looked this morning.

Just going by the pictures, I much prefer the brick wall. It looks more belonging. Of course, I might change my mind if I was there, in the garden, and saw it first hand, but just going by the pictures, I prefer this one.

Many years ago, I used to do a lot of gardening: growing things in the greenhouse and out of it. Putting a little pond into one corner, add a bench, where I sat every morning with my cup of coffee. Weeded and planted come rain or shine.

That was many years ago. Now I don't much use the garden. Both my husband and I are indoor people. We don't worship the sun, and we don't care to sit in the garden for hours on end or even for an hour. I like having garden simply because it gives me extra space from my neighbours. We have a sitting area in the garden, with a large wooden roof added, kind of like a beach hut but without walls, and a BBQ, which has never been used. LOL

I am an autumn and winter person. I love the short, gloomy, days, when it rains and storms a lot. When others get depressed in winter, I start to bloom.
