Thanks. Can't always expect much.Bruce Wallis wrote:Hi Yvette
All the walls at the front are just shuttered concrete...not rendered
The main body of the house, at the back of the site is done....but that's it
I'm sure that work has progressed inside, but from the outside little change in the last 2 weeks.

Re: Water thief's and irrigation
Thanks maccasa for your advice. The garden is planted mostly with type of plants that you suggest but they were only planted last July and are therefore not really established yet. The offer of e mailng the title of the book that you suggested would be very greatly appreciated.

Looks like I jumped the gun on my original post and thought Macassa was responding to me. Anyway I'd like the info too please. LICYwickhamwanderer wrote:Thanks maccasa for your advice.

Thanks. I just ordered the book.
