Help laid our top floor with solid maple wood, help cut down trees, paint & decorate. I’m a avid gardener and even built my own cedar greenhouse in 2017 by myself which I’m quite proud of.
I wish there was a like button here.....brilliant Bratti!

Re: DIY Skills
yes yesterday decided not worth keeping. The small red grapes didn't taste nice anyway and not enough to press for even a glass fullSo cut it down and got out the main root leaving more light into the greenhouse and small flower bed
In doing so I disturbed a paving slab cut to fit at the time (part of one cut for an angle)
this is where the vine stem was and 2x2 rotten support post in that rough grey bit
So just now cemented the red paving slab back and it looks horrible now the vine doesn't hide it.
Easiest thing is a flower pot or small trough to hide it. Yes I could go get another slab and cut but can't be bothered
