Ziva learned that it's more comfortable for me to scratch
her tummy on the chair, than when she roly polys on the ground

Last corner to be cleared

Close-up of the work ahead

Janey in the tree

Mewthos at my feet

Nasturtiums

Brother and sister

The white Geranium planted in the garden with
a Vieruurtjie

Still growing cuttings in Rose's pot

See the wheelbarrow? That's my work ready to be taken away

Weeds trying to use me to spread their seeds!

Put a box anywhere and a cat will get in!

I don't know about you, but I don't see any 'green' fingers ...

The very last corner left after a hard days work

The 'glupsch'

This is where I usually sit. Every evening, while
my mippes play outside

Big job - done!

My succulent corner - all from Rose!

Mewthos and Janey playing

En route past Hartebeespoort

Hartebeespoort Dam - from the car, crossing the bridge

Once the ground was cleared, I dug the bed

Not very deep, but considering how hard the ground is,
and that I'm not a strong young man :)
I'm quite proud of my achievement!

I added the 'border' for extra depth

Of course, Ziva has to inspect my work!

At first, you might think that's Mewthos - but it's Ziva

Fill the hole with compost, then take the plants from the pot

When I want to take a well-deserved break ...
I find my chair occupied!

Ziva just LOVES resting under Spekboom

The 'bottomless' pots I use.

My herb pot, all separated and labelled! 

Mushrooms behind the bench!

Ziva took to the scratch-lounge like a lady!

Toys left for me in the shower

I've no idea how he wriggled himself in so snug - but isn't it just too cute?
