So today it went. I had to stop with only a small corner to go due to rain, but I did admit it does look a much bigger area. In my negotiations with DH around who was to clear it he did promise me another bug hotel....so plenty of room for a fancy one now...he will regret not helping me! ( he was busy putting the foundations down for a new greenhouse to be fair).
Any ideas for a wildlife garden would be gratefully appreciated as I have room to go to town now.....though no budget!s.
