Hello,
This is hardly the view from my window (deviation), as it's over 30 yards away.
I've enjoyed playing with my outdoor toy, Helen. |

The view from my window is a partially completed tall storage cupboard to act as a halfway house while I clear out my old wooden shed, get a base laid and have a new plastic shed built. Not visually stunning but I'm chuffed that I've got this far with a job that requires 2 people. Probably tall ones too. Though I have to wonder how we managed before electric screwdrivers.

You won't regret having a plastic shed Helen. We have had one for years, low maintenance. We also have plastic fencing. Not very green I know but no painting needed.

Hello Anne,
Any chance of a picture of your plastic fence. We are considering a soft fence divide between our immediate neighbour.

Apparently, on Thursday morning this week, a lone Spitfire is taking off from RAF Leuchars to fly along the Coast past Peterhead and Fraserburgh at the tip, and along the Moray Coast to Lossiemouth, I should see it from my window between 10.30 &10.45 am. I am looking forward to that. It is, I am led to believe, part of a whole UK coastal flight programme.

Hi Philip. Here is a picture of a panel from a few years ago. The garden looked tidier then! Plastic grass as well. It comes in sections of 4 of the lines across which slot together down a groove you put either side to whatever height you want. We have never had to replace any of it, no maintenance, but ours could do with a wash down now. It is quite thick but looks nice. I think it is recycled plastic. It is more expensive than wood but won't blow down.
