NDG+ Chelsea Flower Show 2009

Garden built and Baby born....DONE!

Hello everyone,

just to announce that our baby has been born safe and well. He is called Milo and weighed in at 7Ib 9oz. Ally managed to hang on a few days after the show finished although a "false alarm" prevented her from seeing the garden on the last Saturday.

It begins...

Garden complete – 8 days

Alders on my mind

The last week has been fairly quiet. My furniture has arrived and amazingly, it is the correct item. My language skills were obviously better than I believed.

Plants ....please grow.

Garden opens: 34 days to go. Baby due: 47 days to go

Designers, I'm starting to believe, might be as unpopular as estate agents and bankers. We can be a difficult breed, turning up on site, cafe latte in hand, nit-picking at the skilful craft of our builders.

Sprechen Sie Deutsch?

Luckily I do speak and understand German to a basic level. Ally, my fiancée is German and I've been learning for a few years. Usually my skills are reserved for chatting with friends and ordering beer – a very important phrase I quickly became fluent in ....and can actually say in several other dialects as a matter of fact....

Catch up ....... More plans and alterations
