Back to normal
I've had a good break, and am now raring to go again. My own garden looks pretty good despite the neglect. Full of foliage. I did have a major worry with my pond which has a leak which I already knew about and am planning to fix in the winter when I can take out the plants and fish, store in a tank and re-seal. I've been topping it up every now and then from the water butt, but when I got back the water level was the lowest it's been. I immediately topped it up and at the same time was delighted to see that the fish have spawned for the first time this year There's now loads of baby goldfish and tench in there so they're obviously as happy as my kids. During the winter makeover some will stay and some will go off to new homes.
