Re: Heat Exhaustion.
Yes, and I wish I hadn't. I wanted to redesign the garden this year to make it easier to look after. It took me ten days on my own (for most of it) I needed to move a few huge shrubs to the bottom of the garden so I dug everything out, weeded. Got the shrubs moved (eventually) made weed killer for everywhere,then put plastic covering down and bag after bag of big bark chips. It got really hot during that time and I started to feel awful but me being me refused to stop till it was finished. By the end of it I spent 3 days flat out, too done to move, I have high Blood Pressure too and that didn't help..
Was worth it though the garden looks grand..
