the green green grass of home

After the past 4 months I feel I have a bit more insight into the horrors of the Somme and Paschendale, well as least the down sides of being stuck in a muddy trench for 4 months.

However we have finally pulled through this period and again have a LAWN!! It is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo soooooooo good to have grass again. Boys can play, no mud, looks great. I love you ready lawn.

So - again some time sequence shots - taken over the course of the hour it took to lay (day and a half to prepare of course...)

Before:

Tiger was as always very good at helping
Tiger overseeing Pappy

Ta-Dah!

And some more cute shots. Boys have being trying to be nice to Tiger - because, in Arf's words "Tiger, nads chop off"

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! While trying to scare people they actually ended up getting phone numbers from passing hotties

We have also been ripping into the gib inside - Tony Tony came over and showed Dougal and Pappy how the pros do it

We had some spare pink batts so Dougal and Murray made Stu Clark this for his stag do. He got a LOT of hugs that day

Whick is why he must have been so tired the following day - this shot around noon...
