Question why does our rear garden have cobwebs everywhere, and I mean everywhere .

In fact wherever you look it has a cobwebs attached and has always had them

Because you've a healthy population of spiders?

Some moth caterpillars make webs too. If you see a tree completely covered it's likely to be them.

There are a few spiders around the garden and we had some caterpillars trying to invade our apple tree so I disposed of them .

If this is the size of your caterpillars in your garden,lord knows how big your spiders are.

Just laid some silver grey herringbone vinhell down in the new garden shed,in a shed i tell you,posh or what.There was a slight delay in putting it down as we had to play hunt the roll,XPD in their cxrap way took the roll to the wrong house even though the roll was correctly addressed.It took more than a few mins for Mrs P to get the delivery photo from XPD which showed 20,the opposite side of the street.I got it back anyway.i am now cooling off as we are going out for a Wedding Anniversary curry and two pints Uber we need you.

Got the first three nine foot bits of timber down,,bit of a faff as the wood 4 x 4 has warped a bit.But on the plus side i have bought more than enough sand,and they have bedded down well.Mind you nobody is going to walk over them.Might do some tomorrow,but a walk to Wickes as i have found some great 150 mm wood screws of theirs it comes with a special bit,so i will drill a 2" pilot hole then use the drill to put them in,they will look much better on the surface,plus for added stability i might use Wickes own brand no more nails.Nearly fell out with Mrs P as she once again said they were laid in the wrong place.She wanted them on soil,i wanted them halfway on soil halfway on block pavers edging,to give a more stable setting,guess who won out,it was not me.It's going to look ok.

Greenhouse ordered. Just a 6 x 4, quite modest, but the garden isn't huge and it suits my plans nicely.
