Met the local celebrity enforcer, Snoops the dog, clearly the head of garden security. He gave me the official sniff-approval (no tail-wagging bribes required). Solid paws-up from the top brass.

Armed with a spade and questionable digging technique, I successfully excavated 10 perfectly imperfect holes along the wall. These bad boys are now ready for their leafy occupants to move in and start photosynthesizing like bosses. The wall didn't stand a chance — it's officially on the path to becoming way more vertical jungle than vertical concrete. Feeling dirty, accomplished, and slightly watched by a very serious dog the whole time. 10/10 would dig again.

Thanks to the Hoxton Gardens crew for the good vibes and the workout. Green thumbs and PAW’s up!
