Ours "was" ripping out a native grass part of the garden just outside the kitchen window.until the wasps who have built a nest there somewhere had other ideas.so now its wasp watching and trying to find the nest entrance.the odd thing is, we havn't had any wasps inside apart from 1, and we always have the windows and doors wide open all day.

I've already completed mine, ahead of my expectations . I removed a covered and boxed-in sandpit that was here when I bought the house. I have three young grandchildren but they stopped playing in it. I've distributed most of the sand throughout the garden beside the sandpit, and will buy some grass seed later on.

Well next weekend we are ripping out a wall.a load-bearing one at that! Thank goodness for builder-fathers, as I am excellent at Demo, but average at finishing.
