I have gardens on my mind this week (well, there was a brief glimmer of summer before the rain returned...). More specifically, I’ve been thinking about outdoor dining and lounging, and the idea of creating a ‘room’ outside. We’ve recently moved from a flat with a large garden to a house with a much smaller plot, but I have a feeling we’re going to use our new outdoor space a lot more than the . . .
