My daffodils will flower next year. The sheep can’t get to them now.  Cool

Some rusty old gates with one of them opening some I can get in there to work on the bed from time to time. Also a couple of old metal fence panels and a few horse shoes makes it up. Tomorrow I’ll add a little more wood chip and plant some seedlings. I scattered lots of seed over the whole bed last week . Might add more now, theirs not so many things trampling over the bed. Deer could still get in but it’s definitely a deterrent and hoping they won’t become It’s a very small area.

Garden shed progress so far. Here it is. In its very basic form [attachment=7955] 

There will be a tunnel in front of this view , so it won’t be seen much [attachment=7956]

Finally inside [attachment=7957]

Still lot of embellishments to do before filling can start.

A very fine shed. I can think of all sorts of things to put in that.
