july 28th: in my garden 3

the flowers are beautiful, if only it wasn't such a pain in the arse

between this growing further out and hanging further down, and the bellvine that continuously tries to keep creeping up, I've really got my work cut out for me

january 17th: watching over the living room

this time i spotlight a christmas present from me to my girlfriend, she initially seemed unimpressed with him, but i hope he settles in ok.

Standing on a dusty corner ...... twenty years.

Stu's View.

Life and memories can be very fragile 

but give you a warm glow deep down.

Twenty years old and priceless 

Thank you boys, Happy Easter

Adverts for Easter start just after New Year so getting in 

a little early with this post.

Brave ambitious rescue of a tiny horse

Yes Brave

Glen did not swim swollen rivers, climb bard-wire fences,
no he just grabbed the little feller, from beside a dustbin
a fate that should not befall any soft toy.

So why so fraught with danger have you ever taken some thing home ?
when you girl friend has said  " I don't like it."

may 11th: wallflower

my attept at a hanging basket was a lot fuller than my girlfriend's, but i must have misjudged how it would hang which resulted in one of the bedding plants being pressed up against the wall

despite this i was surprised to see it blooming and felt proud of it's determination

april 9th: in my garden 2

the sun has set and the day is over, and my back garden is looking quite different after stripping the decking and acquiring some new furniture and a bbq

april 8th: rescue chair in my garden

a broken and neglected chair that had been dumped down my road by the family that have shutters and locks on all of their windows and doors, and have all their lights on and windows open in the winter, and was rescued by my dad and brother after i'd mentioned looking at it

i'm not quite sure what we'll do with it, we may attempt to repair the leg and restore the colour, but for now it is stood propped up against the wall in our garden

some more faux ivy for the bedroom, except it didn't get any further than the stairs, not sure if it's gonna stay here but i kinda like the way it looks, might need to buy some more to finish the bedroom

march 4th: building a bird house

as much as i try to be creative, i'm not particularly practical, so i needed the help of my dad and my brother to put together a simple bird box, looking forward to getting this up in the garden for my feathered friends to enjoy

february 18th: bedside paint mod and bed decoration

i didn't think to take any photos of the bedsides before i 'modded' them, but basically all i have done is gotten a little bit creative and taken a bedside painted white all over and sanded down the handles before giving them a grey undercoat and finishing them with a metallic silver finish

once the handles were all changed i then decided to put to good use the fake ivy leaves that we bought back in september, spreading it across the side of the bedside and winding up the side of the bedframe, and complemented with a rose on the other side of the headboard
