Hello! Thanks Cleo, I really appreciate that. Hi saddad, nice to meet you.  :)

Cleos right, I'm not a great gardener, although I do love it, and am very interested. I've never grown any veg, in fact to be honest this is the first year I  grew sweet peas that actually flowered, am well chuffed about that (blush)

Hello both and welcome :)

Not only a great site for growing stuff info but also to seed share, get some good and ever-more-inventive tips on how to make essentials from skip throwaways,  to check out the latest bargains at Wilko's....and to source freebie black bukkits  ;D

Hiya Coffee Pot and Les - always a great welcome here for newbies  8).

Like me, you will probably be spending far too much time here. In my folder on my Favourites I have The Basics, Edible Plants, Under Glass, Recipes, The Shed, News, Ponds 'n Stuff, Swap Shop, Bargains Galore, Top Tips, Fun Photos and The gallery, so as you can imagine - it takes me a while to read through all the interesting threads each day  ;D ;D. But in doing so, I've learned so much in my four years here.

Have fun!

Tricia

Laydees with arthritic knees do it in discreet sedate fashion in FREE black bukkits....not for us the gymnastic contortions of the young 'uns....ever seen a pic of Old Queen Vic sitting down in her long black dress & with a po-faced expression? Well, po faced is right....

So now you know ;D

Welcome to newbies, I thankfully don't have to pee in a pot, I have  a bathroom suite as part of my garden decor at the lottie, of course a long skirt does come in handy if you need to sit on the outside loo for a pee break, XX Jeannine

Hi and thanks everyone  :) My confession today is I drink Nescafe instant, so I'm far from posh  ;D

Peeing in a bucket, no way, count me out!! Me knees and me back and - nope couldn't do it I doubt.
I don't have any free black buckets (interesting... ) but I bought some flower ones from Morrisons for 99p would they do?  :D

Post by: saddad on November 08, 2007, 07:53:27
We have a proper "flushing" toilet block on our site!!!
The flower buckets are what most of us snap up CoffeePot
