The Magic Garden took a battering with Storm Arwen. We’re used to gales living by the North Sea but the wind direction was unusual & the force extreme. I was relieved & lucky that it was just my garden that came to harm.

Tha addition of snow the next day was fortunately just a short-lived flurry and I was blessed with a local firm rapidly able to give me new fences. They do look stark compared to the old weathered ones,, an effect greatened bu the loss of my jasmine & climbing roses

The new fence has given me an opportunity to clear out the back of the garden and so I plan to re-build a raised bed all the way along the back so I can grow more vegetables than I currently manage in my pots & containers
