lou lou,

I've got 3 or 4 small Californian Wonder pepper plants in the greenhouse, if they'd be of any use just let me know and I'll post them to you.

I had tried to overwinter some broad beans, red epicure, having had great success the previous year. Few survived but were in full flower and are now lying down! My worst nightmare was a metal shed I put on our allotment, but hadn't fastened to the base properly, which took off over a 4' fence and landed upside down across the next allotment, with things like the workmate still fastened to the roof spars. At least it had stopped not gone another three feet up and across into someones greenhouse! When i put it back I turned it through 90 so that its doors were not facing prevailing winds, screwed it down to the base well and so far it hasn't moved!

A few years ago mum looked out into garden to find the greenhouse had gone!
It had cleared 2 six ft fences and missed next door garden and landed in next one!

Obviously she then received text messages for a while about greenhouse seen doing 80mph anticlockwise down the M25 :-X
