We are having a new patio laid and some landscaping to our rockery.
Ruby our little whippet likes to sit our when we have a bit of sunshine and she insisted that we put her bed on the patio.
So here she is casting a authoritative eye over the workmen as they start the work on day 1.
There's a circular saw a pneumatic drill and three strange men in the garden and it doesn't phase her. In fact 10 minutes later she had popped out of the bed and went to sun herself on the patio, using the workmen's discarded fleeces and coats as a blanket to lie on .
The logs and rockery stones you see are the old one's, bound for a skip this week.
