Lord Ferguson Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Thank you I need to find something that will emulate chicken wire, though - otherwise the fox will have these is no time - any ideas? I used some insect mesh you get from most Ironmongers Mandy... for a fence that is... but it may well suffice as chicken wire as well... you can kind of... bend it.. out of shape if that makes sense \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Nice country scene layout you have yourself there. The use of Floral Garden is great, I have few bits and have been tempted by many others but untill I get to the stage of house building I will resist. The Ford Anglia is a peach as well, my Mum learn't to drive in one of them!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Ferguson Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 The rabbits have moved in at Holly Farm: Grandma and Grandad haven't seemed to have noticed though - too busy admiring their new flower beds I expect: And an outside tap was installed this week: Builders are moving in at the weekend, as the Market Garden has just purchased some more land for the greenhouses...

I have bird tables, but (ignoring any possible awful jokes or puns!) they only go cheap if they are without birds. I expect that you would have noticed on eBay that the birds fetch high prices and are difficult to come by. Glad you managed to get a greenhouse - I expect the missing parts will come along amongst other things you bid on in due course, and if not I can always see if I have anything of use.

Lady Ferguson Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 Holly Farm has now been moved to a larger site - in readiness for the market garden. And the council have even made up the road: The elevated position of the bungalow gives Mr and Mrs R as good view of the surrounding farmland: A there's even a nice, comfy step for Beckham the cat: And Gervase is helping with the river diversion with his backhoe (well, I really don't have much in the way of farm machinery compared with you guys, but you have to try, don't you ) Loads more to do until we're ready for planting vegetables - I spent an hour making 1/32 potatoes! And can anyone please tell me what sort of equipment I'm going to need? \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
