2023 - What I did today

Trip to allotment plot to break up an old shed into pieces for transport, big enough to build a new shed at home. Managed to get a car full home and lugged the timber to thet op of the garden. By that time I was knackered so the cladding will need to wait until another day.
A while ago I bought a load of urooted differnt coloured stemmed willows.I managed to get four of the ten growing. One of them has shot upwards and is about 20 feet high. The problem is , is that the prevailing wind has made it vere towards my neighbours garden! To counteract this I have pulled it back to vertical and tied it to a rhododendron bush growing next to it. Hopefully this will cure the problem?
Two of the other willows are growing either side of a narrow section in my lawn. I have the bright idea of making a willow arch, but these two are growing more prostrate. Once again an old piece of aerial cord was utilised to tie one section of the willow in question to a metal clothes line post which should make it go upwards before going outwards? We shall see!
