Gardening!

I've just spent 2 days making the lawn bigger. We've been trying to reduce the work needed to maintain the garden for a while now (no vegetable garden this year, for example) and this is part of the process. There's one particular area where I felled a eucalyptus tree about 5 years ago (I LIKE trees, but this was about 90' high and only 50' from the house). For whatever reason, nothing much (except weeds) has grown in the area and expensive planting schemes have come to nought.
Anyway, I (eventually) managed to dig the tree root out and over the next 2 days we've cleared and cultivated an area that's about 15m X 2m - just need to get it flat now and then we can sow grass seed!

Oh, and it's Shona & Roly's wedding next Saturday!
