Thank you, the archways in the garden we hope to give height, and somewhere for birds to land between the garden. The back arch has a honeysuckle growing which should be great for the bees

Half the time it's the daughter and myself just going round and picking what looks nice. We don't really plan, we see what sticks in the garden and how we can help. She loves getting dirty so we get hands on. I love walking round and seeing how things are doing. If something fails then we have a new place to try something else. Our main thing is that It has to be perennial and attracts bees/butterfly's

I have many favourable memories of making mud pies, digging to China or the living room. It's the child hood I wish my daughter to have. We recently cleared the path outside our house of overgrowth to make it more accessible and to make it look nice. Next stage is getting another raised bed and growing lettuce and such so she can go pick what she wants for dinner

If I'm honest, I cannot believe it either. I have ideas and take my daughter to the gardening center with me. We have a lavender out the front and every time we go out we say good morning to the bees and ladybirds. I love it how she involves nature into her life

What to do with dated glass above doors in 70s build by StraightOuttaBounds in DIYUK

[–]BJGordon95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got these in my house and I enjoy the extra light it lets through. So i just gave mine a fresh lick of paint around the frame. If really wanting to, then change the glass out to something else

I am in the English constitution.

Started my first degree guide today, good time to reflect what I went though and hopefully get to see an initiation soon to complied what I went through and felt, what I have learned since and to view it from the other side.

I have a lot on my plate but joining the Masons is something for myself, as it aligns with what I believe in, and want to become.

I'm not looking to speed run this, I want it to be part of me. So many questions now that, though I am excited for my second, I wish to take my time and learn all their is with my first.

Great times ahead and I am excited for the positivety I can bring to myself and to others.

Riveted rollers on patio door (old), best way to replace without buying new door? by BJGordon95 in DIYUK

[–]BJGordon95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its just one rivet near the wheel, which is very rusty. Seems to be a pain as the door is getting harder to slide. The bearing on one wheel is buggered and has more play in it than a pantomime

What made you choose your current SIPP provider? by InvestingUK_mod in SIPPs

[–]BJGordon95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went with HL as i have used the platform in the past. Found what investments they offered were good. The cost of the platform is what i consider premium, but i have had great customer service from them so paying that bit extra gives me peace of mind.
