Re: Backyard Thread - Pergola Up! 112Apr 02, 2013 6:07 pm humble Did you manage to get the stone sorted? how did the plants go? Would love a update. well .. the dogs have had some fun in one of the garden boxes.. and then the sun smashed a couple of the plants, so as it is one garden box is empty full of soil. the other one is thriving a bit better.. .. so angry and depressed about the other garden box. but we can move on, ive added a new feature screen, outdoor tv+fire place, stained the all the timber and added stackstone cladding over the easter break. just need to swap the pavers over and it'll just about be finished. will try get some pics up later in the week, here is a little taster!
