Rhubarb, pint, champagne, not fussy!!!! Not a spirit girl though, or red wine, has funny effect!!!!All lovely, thanks very much!! Can't find my pint though Jaggy????? Polytunnel is 15ft by 10ft, not huge, I know, but spent all pennies now...My old boy gave me all his seed trays today!!! Might have been cos I accidently locked him in his shed :o, now that was a bit awkward.....  ::) ::) ::) Lottie  ;D

15ft x 10ft sounds big enough for starters to me. I am stuck with a 6x8 greenhouse  :( which I managed to reclaim off an old disused allotment. Mind you it cost me nowt but labour, so I am not complaining . . .

Same as you, D, got my greenhouse for free, just by dismantling, (OK OH did.......!), But I thought I can always add on to polytunnel as my empire begins to grow  ;D Lottie ;)

Yes, I can see your empire growing . . . First Woodbridge, then Suffolk, the whole of east anglia . . . England being swallowed . . . then Europe . . .  ;D


Ah well, need to get off to my guitar social, a bit of a summer bash, to stop the fingers getting stiff. Will be back by 9, catch up on the news then !  :D

RU going to be growing your own hanging basket plants from seed then Lots?

The pub looks great by the way.  Do you water and maintain them as well?

That's the plan, Wardy!! There are some round the back as well, in a courtyard.  All the plants/compost/feed etc cost £300, so I figured that if I grew them from seed myself, then I'd charge the same, but cost to me so much less.  I maintain them, takes alot of dead-heading  :-\, but he has an automatic watering system, thank God!!!! I spend enough of my time as it is, standing on the tables out the front!!! Lottie ;D

Yes it was a rather gloomy comment wasn't it. OK, still got lots of lovely days ahead though, and perhaps more importantly , life should 'feel' sunny.  :D
