Happy 15th Wedding Anniversary Mum & Simon I have created this page in appreciation to the mammoth job Pen did for our Wedding Anniversary 25th October, 2008. We had this shocking patch of dirt and weed right at our front door. I had mentioned to Pen, that I did not know what on earth I could do with it. As Pen is a real 'Green Thumb' and having studied Permaculture, her mind immediately jumped into a plan of action. Thank you Pen for the wonderful back breaking job you accomplished in two days hard work. Click on picture to enlarge photo's. |
