We have moved house last september and have a faily dececnt sized front
and back garden (Both of wich need alot of work!).
I started clearing the back before the bad snow hit us (pulling out
brambles, weed spraying, digging what will be the rockery over and
lineing a patch i was hopeing to start with).
I spent an afternon in the garden this week lobbing the tops off grass
(growing between the paveing slabs) putting together what will be either
a veggy patch or deep border (not decided what to put were yet really)
and just tidying up alittle (hopeing to get out there later today too if
the weather holds off!).
I also had abit of a play about on the yard area by my back door as i
wanted some colour not a scrap of mud that was there before (we made a
small raised ish border) my winter flowering plants have now died back
and spring bulbs are pokeing through.
Sorry if my post is long i just want to give an idea of what i am
working with (basicly a garden thats mostly paving slabs :-().



You say 'we' are you both gardeners?

And one of the first questions normally asked on this newsgroup, is 'where
are you'?

"Yard" might be a clue.
