Bird Bath

I always wanted to have something like this around my bird bath, but have never been able to as it is in an awkward position in my garden. If I did this I would cut off access to the water butt. Shame.

Two multi-coloured bottles on the wall

These were some old bottles in one of the refurbished garden sheds. I hesitate to call them this as they were brick built and had a fireplace and chairs inside. They were used as refuges from the monotonous daily existence during the six day week.

I particularly like the ginger beer one as I often liked this as a child. They make our modern bottles look so boring.

I think the tiles are just there to show that the tenants used to tile the inside of the ?shed? to make it more comfortable than bare brick.

Wood Does You Good

I took this in a garden in Warwick on a recent trip. It was Hill Close Gardens. They are old allotments from Victorian times. This was when people used their gardens to grow food to help them survive and also to relax from the dirty bustle of the city.

I will post more pictures as I get to edit them.
