  1. That is weird Jude although I understand the concept behind it :-?

    What is the problem Hdoubleu? Gives the cat something to look at. Lid protects the inhabitants. Our cat used to lie on the glass lid and watch the fish swim by. Kept her amused for hours and the fish seemed to enjoy it too.

    Not sure I'd want to try it on my cats - those clips could hurt.

  2. I went to work. Tried to come home. Had hold-ups on the hill because of large numbers of AOS and cops all over it. Came home, sat on the back deck with coffee and watched the chopper circling round as it searched for someone. Had to hold my tongue when the cop holding the big gun waved me through. I wanted to say "That's a big one!" but he looked like he'd left his sense of humour at home :lol: :lol:

  3. I have always had rocks in my tanks. One tank had a double layer of glass at the bottom but the other large tank only had one layer of glass. I used polystyrene under the tank and another sheet of polystyrene in the tank. The one inside the tank was cut slightly smaller so that it didn't show at the front and sides once the gravel was added.

  4. campanula is nice. Its low growing with purple flowers, it will spill over the edges of the tyres and it stays green in winter. It doesn't get out of control like some ground covers do.

    as someone else said, violas and pansies will self seed and pop up all over the place giving bright splashes of colour.

    coreopsis is lovely. Its tall and bright yellow. The double varieties are especially nice and it likes hot and dry conditions.

    DON'T plant forget me nots unless you want to spend the rest of your life weeding them out :)

    Spring bulbs would be nice but its too late to plant them now - maybe leave some space for planting them in autumn.
