    Gardens and Pretty Places we have visited

    I think you notice the plants (or garden features) that you like @Busy-Lizzie and I would really like one of those antique copper planters, if only I could justify the cost :).

    Not a heron - we have loads of them here on the Thames. They are much more angular birds, standing around waiting for fish and looking elegantly gawky. This rounder softer looking bird is some kind of a wader - maybe a greenshank or godwit as @Selleri says. Or a dunlin, or a sandpiper?

    Raised Bed Help needed?

    Those windows would make a brilliant cold frame, honestly probably more useful than as bed sides. For the raised bed itself, about 30cm deep is plenty for most veg. You could get some lettuce,...
    Those windows would make a brilliant cold frame, honestly probably more useful than as bed sides. For the raised bed itself, about 30cm deep is plenty for most veg. You could get some lettuce, radish and spring onions going now and they'll be fine under fleece if it's still chilly where you are.

    Ideas for what herbs and veg I can grow in raised beds in shade

    Alpine strawberries do really well in partial shade, they actually prefer it to full sun. Gooseberries are worth a go too, they're one of the few fruit bushes that genuinely don't mind a shadier spot.
