Does your partner fill your garden with junk?

As if that weren't bad enough, I'm forever falling over the damned things

Does anyone else prefer an uncluttered garden?

Buy a shotgun and have a blast.

Nearly thirty pots and a dozen or so concrete animals at the rear but most importantly....not a blade of grass.

I think you should look at this situation from another perspective, Eichhornchen. Just pave over the garden or lay concrete and you can either put up portable basketball stands with nets so you can play basketball. you could also use it as a squash court or play deck hockey on it. I'm sure there are other things you could do as well.

Now you have a nice recreation area.

Oh yeah... then when I fell over her pots I'd smash my teeth in
