Well it's the 27th December and I have just come into the office to start my masterplan work - yes start!!! Has been a really busy time shopping, writing cards and generally getting everything ready for Christmas so having had a few days off with my family has been great and much needed. Historical Conservation is finished so am pleased about that but have not even started Tom Turner's yet - help!!!

Looking forward to New Year's Eve now!

I quite like this image of a garden from the International Garden Festival at Westonbirt - I have been looking at show gardens for the masterplan.

Also like these from Hampton Court last year - I really like white walls similar to this in gardens, I know they have been around for a while but I always think they look so effective. It must be the mystery of the cut out bits as that is what I like.

Not been good on the masterplanning bit this week, doing three plus all research with other projects has been a bit much but I expect it is what is going to be like from now on. Don't think it will be much of a Christmas this year, still at least I got out of decorating the Christmas tree!
