England v Pakistan first T20 match is underway at Old Trafford. Really surprised that the weather has stayed good enough – there was no hope for the Glamorgan v Worcestershire Rapids Vitality Blast T20 here last night. 🏏

After years of neglect we’ve been trying to improve and actually make use of the area of garden behind our house.

Overview

I should really have taken some ‘before’ photographs but here are a few details in pictures of progress so far.

Meanwhile, for some rest and relaxation time, at the front of the house the weather has now been good enough to string up the hammock.

England beat New Zealand in the 4th T20 match to level the series 2-2. Good to see an outstanding performance from England after a couple of defeats. Deciding match is at Eden Park, Auckland on Sunday – but from what I’ve heard the weather forecast is not good 🙁 🏏
