It started out…

as a simple job of trimming the clematis and the forsythia and removing an old tree stump.  Easy enough, but then we discovered that the clematis wasn’t as dead as it appeared.  What to do?

build a trellis!  Trouble is that I tend to over-engineer things, so using up some left-over timber the finished article looked like a National Trust signpost!  So, what to do?  Make it one!
