He really is a Reincarnated Victorian Engineer who is in his element doing this sort of stuff! <br />We make a great team - I come up with barmy ideas, start all the heavy stuff with great enthusiasm, he finishes off the heavy stuff when I run out of steam, works out and does all the complicated technical stuff - with me as his 'goffer' and I do the arty-farty finishing off! It's the same on projects inside the house too!Nutty Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06146296943319504785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292808539041077623.post-51301356969868434752014-02-11T09:22:35.104+00:002014-02-11T09:22:35.104+00:00Haha...yes Kathryn, this is the second pond in the...Haha...yes Kathryn, this is the second pond in the pond saga!Now that it's all done it looks great - and I can't wait to do the next post about the 'arty-farty' part of the construction...my baby!!!<br /><br />We tackle these things because no=one said it wasn't possible!

I had to go back through old posts until I finally found March 2012 where there *was* a pond post. Thought I was dreaming for a moment. Yep! Clearly this was a new water adventure. The cement part was daunting in and of itself. It's so admirable that you tackle these hard things and create more and more beauty each time you endeavor. Thank you for sharing. So inspiring! Love across the pond!

The whole Japanese garden was one 6 summer holiday project almost 8 years ago now - what an optimist I am!<br />Last year was a wash-out weather wise, so it doesn't really count, but everything always takes us far longer than I anticipate it will! Partly beause Himself puts things off that he thinks are going to be really difficult, but then because he's worried about them and thought them through for so long they actually go really smoothly and easily!Nutty Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06146296943319504785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292808539041077623.post-39212015377700785982014-01-27T08:42:30.551+00:002014-01-27T08:42:30.551+00:00I bet you are really enjoying your pond now.I bet you are really enjoying your pond now.Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292808539041077623.post-77295027314415085612014-01-26T22:06:22.777+00:002014-01-26T22:06:22.777+00:00Oh, there you are :} Lovely!
