Pictures from 2003

Welcome to Highview - new entrance sign

Check out the daffodils

Here are 2,000 reclaimed bricks - I reclaimed them! Remnants of the wall that fell down last October.

And here is more devastation out by the garages

But now it is all better and wonderful again. For a few months it was quite disconcerting to see 400 greyhounds from the kitchen window at 6 am!

Here are some of the family - me first

Jac

Nick

Caspar

Isaac

Now for the garden: here is the back garden with a new flower bed by the willow

The summer house and a poor excuse for a vegetable garden (only beans and rhubarb this year).

If you have never seen the front, then you won't miss the tres - but loads have been cut down, especially where the empty flowerbed is now.

This is looking from the far end of the garden looking back towards the pool, the summer house and the house

Now for the 'art in the park'. First is our moon swing under the weeping willow.

New Zealand dagon flies in the pond

Brian and Jay - remember helping me to erect the railway sleeper benches on the old tennis court? This is what it looks like now. Two painted benches and a wibbly wobbly statue in the middle - not terribly clear in this picture I'm afraid, but you get the idea.

Close up detail of the wibbly wobbly thing

the head (with grass for hair) near the pond

Finally the refurbished pond and new beds

And a bit of detail of the slate
