I don't put my Greenhouse Crops in there until I know I can leave the door open, if I do get caught out with a colder snap I will close it but leave the vent open (& throw a fleece over the plants if it is going to be proper cold). The only reason I do this is so I will still have some air movem...

Lovely house and surrounds Richard! No wonder you love it!

Most of the buds on mine are closed but there are some open & just know they will invite the others to join! I'm going to do the paintbrush & a fleece fence of some description. Expect the fence will probably blow away in first stiff breeze but I did say addiction!

Mr Westi is overweight ,had a quadruple bypass, diabetic, had a diabetic foot ulcer that kept him off longer than the bypass & shopping is a nightmare - totally agree tiger! Kind off think the confusion is intentional at times.

Cheers guys!

Got a man with a big drill lined up!

Diane - funny!

Damn thing is in flower already - note a full week before last year! I will have to be creative to get a crop - will start with a new artist brush for one & may have to look at some sort of fleece fence around it as well. Any hints & tips appreciated! Also think I was ripped off with the siz...

I believe I posted that I wanted to move my Red Love apple so it is against the garage wall as by some fluke of nature there is no growth out the back. I think it might have been trained at some point into a fan. Anyway my question - have I left it too late? I have read that you have to by the the e...

Peter - thank you! No mention of re-locating them, thought that was in allotment act? That has been our saving grace to date as no land available & when something might be useful the farmer they put compulsory purchase on to get the building land has bought it first to build his own houses! (Not...

Indeed Pawty! xx 50p a plant??

Still think we should have zones in the UK! But will join the experiment! Quite like stuffed marrow!

I soo want a polytunnel, but just know I wouldn't be able to put it up & Mr Westi is falling apart so no help there! (Bypass, bad hips, dodgy elbows). Not to mention the lottie site is not secure from development yet!

Just keep teasing guys!

What a productive day! After 2 weeks of rain & no lottie, today was cloudy but no rain, so able to muck in. Got 3 large trugs of burn ash for the onions & even managed to put individual piles at the end of the onion beds ready to scatter. Then Mr Westi's xmas present of a pile of old horse s...
