    I posted here briefly a few years ago when I was in temporary accommodation. I've now been allocated a house and garden with the local HA. :) The garden was basically a small patch of muddy grass, and so far all I've done is put in a shed and laid some reclaimed slabs. I have decided to create a sort of a courtyard garden using raised beds to give the plants a chance (it's very wet). I will need privacy planting between the neighbours - they're separated by a 4' fence. I'm a divorced working mum of 2 and on an extremely tight budget so it should be interesting to see how the garden evolves. Hopefully you can help me create something out of nothing. :)

          Hi Woo! Nice to see you're still here. I had a wee nosey around and see some familiar names. I remember someone created a whole garden on their balcony! I'm going to start a thread to post my progress, should I put it in Garden Projects, Beginners Garden Development or Members Gallery? And do I just post pics directly in posts or make an album?
