Janet and her husband both enjoy tending to their garden and shared this about their garden:
"We are both in our eighties and have lived in the Ngaio Marsh Retirement Village for three and a half years. Our passion for gardening spans many years. We change our display every six months to cover Spring and Summer.
The residents in the village regularly bring their visitors to see our display and take plenty of photographs. When you hear comments such as “It lifts my spirits when I get to this corner” you realise how much it means to everyone. We will continue to create a beautiful garden for as long as we are able."

This is a beautiful saddle with lots of great features:
* soft and comfortable
* finest quality suede synthetic used
* solid brass fittings for durability
* perfectly balanced panels for a happy horse
* solid, long life wooden tree
It’s genuinely brand new, never been near a horse. It’s been stored in the house, on a saddle rack, with a cover on it.
The stirrup leathers are real leather with numbered holes, the irons have a spot on them from being in storage, I haven’t tried to get it off, but have supplied full photos, the girth is 88cm long as shown in the photos.
In Australia these are going second hand for around $500.
