Birthday preparations


Mum is 80 in September and is having a celebration on Saturday 8th of September for all her Friends and Relatives. Have been busy getting the garden fixed up in case the weather improves. Almost all Summer the weather has been terrible here. Neglected the back garden for a while and it went a bit mad. Over 50 years ago Dad decided to put in several large Rockeries, dozens of trees and bushes and thousands of rocks. Some rocks came from as far a field as Kilkenny and Killarney. Anyhow it has all got a bit too much over the years and I have had to reduce it a bit and dig out old trees etc. Hopefully ready now for the big day. Have some old garden photos somewhere. Must do a then and now shot sometime. I have still kept most of the shape of Dads unique garden but now hopefully less labour intensive.
