“No is boring can we do something fun please”

Corten weathering steel garden edging!

Wow! What a day of work! Many thanks to Wes and Paula we now have a lovely edge to the vegetable garden.

Briar is not impressed, mainly because she had to stay inside while welding happened. She only got to help us at the end, once the welding was done.
