Henergy Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Well I've been toying with a WIR for a while now & looked at all your lovely pictures, read almost all the posts etc. Decided on a 9' by 9' from Bay. The DH decides that he'd maybe like a logcabin in the garden to work in. (He is self employed & uses our study but its a nightmare in school holidays with 3 boys running amok in the house). Oh no I think....thats my WIR out of the picture However, it seems that with a bit of careful planning, we can fit a logcabin and a WIR just so long as its a 6' deep one. DH then says it would need to be a lot wider than 9' so how about 15' !!!!! Well, OK, if you insist And now that we have to get builders in to put down a base, they can do the WIR base too instead of me.....happy days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daxigirl Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Good on your other half he was probably thinking that you wouldn't agree to a log cabin if he said no to the WIR. after all fairs fair, great for you. Poet that's fab love the way it grows. How many birds do you have? How clean and tidy it is, I can only aspire to that my girls seem to believe that the chippings should be outside the run.

Guest Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 .... Poet that's fab love the way it grows. How many birds do you have? How clean and tidy it is, I can only aspire to that my girls seem to believe that the chippings should be outside the run. sorry, only just seen this; we have 5 girls at the moment but have had up to 9. I only take photos when it's clean and tidy, it's not always like that! We tend to have a fair bit of aubiose kicked out onto the flags too. DH hoovers it up with the garden vac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
