    Garden party , bring a shovel!

    Gradually recovering the drive so the bikes and cars can get in and out .
    Oddly the lorry driver didn't seem to take any notice of my little gardeners instructions, despite both speaking sevenelenish!

    And so it goes, new raised beds for marigolds apparently butterflies love em and snakes dont, we'll see.

    Any suggestions for a smallish plant tree or shrub that will prosper S facing walled bed 60cm deep.

    I'll have passive watering sprinkler

    Like to grow about 2 metres to screen shed adjacent but nowhere near as high as the coconut palm .

    Man David. That is some "Rough" dirt for top soil. Why not have them bring in clean landfill?

    Lots of good shade trees available that are robust here and grow well.

    Stretching exercises may help, but at your age, it may be too late.

    if you've ever been to India or Nepal you'd know the reason

    you take a pile of big bits and gradually make them small bits, i think its a message from Mrs David

    Seems logical. HAHAHA.

    What I have found is its about saving money obviously. 500 bht for boulder/dirt clod filled fill versus 750 bht for nice fill. We are talking about ~$8 dollars. God Bless them.
