    did all not go according to plan with the lawn?
    You know he grew up as a little shitspark from the old shitflint and then he turned into a shitbonfire and driven by the winds of his monumental ignorance he turned into a raging shitfirestorm. If I get to be married to Barb I'll have total control of Sunnyvale and then I can unleash the shitnami tidal wave that will engulf Ricky and extinguish his shitflames forever. And with any luck he'll drown in the undershit of that wave. Shitwaves.

    Looks great better doing it yourself than getting ripped of by some landscape gardener.

    Nice job Barry but I don't think the brick lawn boarders do your garden any justice mate.

    My personal taste is I think it would look better and more natural without them.

    Looks like a great improvement and a lot of hard work but as 4me2 says the brick borders don't do it justice. Can you put a cap over them?

    LOL now I know who you are

    the garden looks great m8 - but I also agree that you should cap the bricks off - that will finish it all off just nice

    ditch the engineering brick mate and grab yourself some block paving blocks of ebay, driveline 50's you want or something like that, cheap as chips, they will look the same only they are solid and dont have the structural holes in them. Other than that looks good mate well done.
