Back from m' hols

Back from our travels in France, today is my first day in the office after a fortnight at our place in the Loire Valley. The break was a relaxing and happy one, although the weather could have been kinder. It stayed bright enough for us to go out and look at a number of public gardens, between long walks in the countryside, canoeing on the Cher and some seriously good eating and drinking.

As promised, we visited the garden festival at Chaumont, an annual "must see" for garden designers. I hope the photographs included here illustrate the theme of "play in the garden" for you to get a feel for it.

I spent a few hours this morning at our current garden construction, a five acre plot just around the corner from the office. All seems to be going well and the lads are enjoying playing with the large machinery needed for this big project.

Tomorrow I have a new client to see and a plan to present to an existing one. More tales about our break when I have a spare moment in the afternoon.....

    Please forgive my ignorance for having posted a request for a few words on growing spuds in containers. Had I read the links I would have found what I wanted.
    I was so excited when I found the blog I just got carried away.
    Your blog is brilliant! As a very new gardener it's helpful to read what others are planting, and the photos are great.

    I will continue to follow your blog with interest.

    Kind regards

    ps.
    Glad you enjoyed your hols.
