You have done us proud again Tee Gee,
I am about fifty years behind you with the state of mine.
Keep it up and enjoy the year ahead.

Got them back now to put some tread on them

But not remotely as tidy!!!!

WOW

I must be further behind than I thought. I have chillies, peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, courgettes and strawberry seedlings on the go. What else can I get going? I have just taken delivery of a greenhouse but its been far too windy to attempt to build it so thats this weekends job. We have moved house so have started again on a veg plot and only have onions and shallotts planted so far although we have lots of potatoes chitting away.

That one is a 10ft x 8ft Alton.

I only use it for propagation and storing plants needing winter protection.

I have a 28ft x8ft, 12ft x8ft and 8ftx6ft unheated greenhouses on the alloment that I do my growing in. Plus I have a 20ft 4ft bed in the communal tunnel.

So I don't really need to grow anything in my 10x8

This is my overall set up;

That's impressive. I am sewing under heat today...my old propagator (old huge beast) has had some tlc done as ominous burny smell before!

Your rockery better than mine here...only Hellebores my end.
