There are two houses that I pass every so often during my irregular walks from home to camden. I stroll along the canal because its a nicer walk than being near the busy roads. Although some cyclists think its a bloody speedway and they have absolute right of way.
Anyhow, one of these houses near to camden has a garden that looks a bit grim during the winter months but always looks really inviting during hot days. It looks like it has just enough shade and light to be a perfect hang out with friends on hot days; yet I have never seen it used.
The other is near park road and the entrance is on the outer circle of regents park. Its huge and well kept, yet again I have never seen it used; I’ve never even seen a gardener.
While I’d love to have a garden space to relax (not likely on my wages) it does make me wonder if I did have a garden would I have the time to use it?

I know those houses well, Jimmy, as you might imagine. There is a basic rule applying here. If you can afford to buy/lease any of them, then you can afford to pay someone to do your garden just how you like it, and have the time to relax in it too. Enough said.
Best wishes, Pete.
Very nice properties. Have you ever seen anyone relaxing in those gardens? They’re probably too busy making money for their upkeep. 🙂
No never.
These shots are very good. And I’d love to live in a property like that.
You’d need a rather large income Vinnieh.
I know, maybe one of these days.
