Back verandah

I’ve been cleaning the back verandah for 2 days. It was littered with leaves and dust and cobwebs plus all my plants I had under cover for winter. It looked a real mess. Now I’m ready for visitors. 

The extra is the remains of the stump from a huge elm tree we had cut down about 10 years ago. We hated having it taken out but it was rotting inside and dangerous. My little garden is not big enough for a monster like this.
