Ha ha ! That's exactly what I've been up to and I've nowhere now, from head to toe, which isn't hurting. And oh God yes -the bites ! But for me it's worthwhile ; I love my garden and look out often to see the rewards from the pain !

.......and the friendships we have here are really are special. But dry those tears & have Paracetamol and a cuppa then take a gentle stroll somewhere peaceful with Socks (he can chase a ball whilst you just take it easy). Love & hugs...Xx

I do admire you. I read your posts even though I can’t relate to them. Your fortitude and your ability to retain your sense of humour are awesome. Sending you and your son my very best wishes for the future. Ann

Fake grass for us for now, no maintenance needed and it looks great if you get the decent stuff.

Horrible struggle for you alongside everything else D - can relate to the garden thing - and cutting through cables (do take care of yourself there though with a circuit breaker) my husband left me with a tricky garden to care for years ago, and your post brought it back. I'm in a ground floor flat now, and I smile every time I see the gardener go past the window with the lawnmower! Take care x
