The Phone Chair!

This chair sits outside our back door. Amongst a  (growing!!) collection of pots and plants, it is the best place to get phone reception on our mobiles! Reception here has never been 'good' but ever since our big storm a few weeks ago it is now definitely classed as 'poor'!!

It's a lovely old garden chair. A throwaway from a friend of ours. Luckily Geoff noticed its possibilities and it deftly made its way onto the back of the ute and home to us! It was destined for the Veggie Garden from memory. It was quite heavy to carry and l think l just plonked it down for a rest and there it stayed. One phone call later its new role in life was discovered and it has stayed ever since!

And as for the plant collection? Well they are just amassing somehow! A great spot for baby plants as they miss the harsh afternoon Sun. A great place for newly bought plants as l can enjoy and easily water them from the back door and a great place for transitional plants.................a few days at the back door , then into the ground!

And am l in good company having masses of pots gathering at my back door??? l most certainly think so ! If it's good enough for Great Dixter , my absolute favourite English Garden , then it's most certainly good enough for me!

(although most definitely NOT on the same scale and quality!!!!)
