Miranda You appear to be making all the right choices in life. I will be a little bit presumptuous by offering some advice on helping you to raise your child in touch with nature in this age full of all the electronic lures that keep the kids indoors. or, when outdoors, glued to a small screen, rather than the glory that surrounds them. I am writing a book about landscape architecture and have a section regarding the importance of embracing nature in the preschool years. - which I would like to forward that section to you. However, my computer skills are limited to email and US Mail. I don't even know how to attach a picture to the text. If you would like to receive this draft from my future book, send me your email or postal address, and I'll get it right off to you. My email is cascio.offsite@gmail.com Good luck with your new challenges and opportunities. Joe Cascio

Put the mower in the garden shed or is it a garden ornament!! Is there anymore of the colour bond fencing left, you could use this and then plant on the street side of it. You could also make a screen with timber and wire mesh to grow a climber Buy a table and chairs from Bunnings, to add to the lovely classic bench to make the space look like an outdoor room...$500 wow,
