Fabulous!
How big is it?  ( I didn't have sound on so don't know if you mentioned it)

Very impressive and lots of ideas to be gleaned like the sinking of waterbutts so you can put a workbench over them.

It is amazing how some plants seem to survive extreme cold (well, -10C is pretty extreme) if they are sheltered.

That's brilliant.  I don't think I'd ever go home if I had one of those on my plot.

ohhh - my First tunnel arrives tomorrow but my building team consists of me and hubby with broken back (well that's what he says...) Loved the video - very inspired to get on with building (if a bit daunted)
