Wildflowers and LOTS of bottles

The specifications are complete and the archaeological authority approved. While waiting for these we decided to sow wildflower seed to tidy up the fence line. We weren't too sure how well they would grow, the ones we put up near our house sulked for months after being hammered into the ground by hail stones. To our delight the ones at the hall have flowered profusely and look fabulous. Thank you Wildflower World for your great selections. Of course clearing the frontage has given us an insight to the amount of people who must walk home drinking. We have found beer bottles, pre-mixed drinks bottles, soft drink bottles and cans and for some inexplicable reason most of a carpet sweeper. Probably not related to the drinking. While the clearing was going on we were fortunate enough to be approached by a local company looking for storage space so while the outside was littered with used bottles the inside is now crammed with new empty bottles, stock to be personalised and distributed by the company. Handy for them to have storage close by their print factory and wonderful for us to have some rent to put towards the restoration. We're currently gathering quotes for drainage work and the old lady is looking perkier already.
