The Vicarage Garden

One of the many assets the old house has is it's fantastic garden. Wrapping around 3/4 of the house, encompassing a pool, a greenhouse, cherry trees, apples trees, a fig tree, a wysteria, soft grasses, and a variety of wild flowers and animals, among other things. Most of the flora and fauna have been around some time, but the green house is a new addition. This is something my Mum has wanted for a while, and when one came up, we took it. The person who owned it, bought it in 1977, and never put it up! All the glass, the fittings and the contents were still there. The only thing we were up against, was the fact that we had no directions, or pictures.... Graham and Dorothy (my Godmother) came over to help us assemble it, and I doubt we could have without them. Thanks you two! (And Muffin) My Mum is outside, as I type, planting seeds in the greenhouse. Obviously, it's a good thing!
