Earth, Earth, Earth!

We back on to a graveyard, and yesterday they were doing loads of digging with diggers and all sorts, so I talked my husband into going round and having a word with the digger man to see if we can have some of the soil he was digging up. Of course, he let us, why wouldn't he? Even lent us a shovel and a wheelbarrow which the kids had great fun riding in! So we filled up the flower- planter that my dad made, and topped it off with high nutrient soil from B&Q, and I was able to get some herbs planted. Also managed to fill up the border a bit, but I'm going to put the high nutrient soil in there also, and I've also decided to make another border up the side of the garden that has the sun all day, and am going to attempt to grow some veggies! So some of the graveyard soil went down along there too as a base.
