    Well done for finding the thread, Obi, if I look back on what I posted before I can see how much it’s improved over the year... Not! (Unless I was too embarrassed)

    ....Ā Dove, is there any way you could put one under a window so that you're looking over it into the garden?
    Only if I move the mini lean-to greenhouse into an even shadier spot šŸ™„Ā

    Currently screaming at the computer.Ā  Firefox has automatically updated and a bug in the update has disabled all 3rd party plug-ins and extensions.Ā  That means I have no ad-blocking at present and the display is jumping all over the place as the *Ā£)"&*" adverts expand.Ā  It's not practical to move to another browser at the moment as I'll have to try to remember all the login details again.

    Is your messĀ  plant or inorganic?
    I bought a big coffin storage thing to put my clutter in. It holds my empty flower pot collection cushions, rarely used tools etc etc Unfortunately, the top is a great place to park potted plants etc so it's usually too much of a faff to take them all of to open the lid.
    My mess is mostly pots and tools. I've got plenty of space for storage but it's all on the ground floor and the garden is on the first floor which makes it very annoying and time consuming when I need to do a lot of jobs in a short time. I think you've had a good idea about the storage though. I could knock up a quick pot store to get things tidied away for now and work out something better over the winter. Maybe I'll see what Gumtree has to offer first...
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    This afternoon I was clumsy enough to drop my spade on my foot.Ā  At the time I went OOWW!Ā  and carriedĀ  on digging.Ā  Forgot all about it until after dinner when I had been sitting a while.Ā  When I got up to bring the washing in, I found my foot was hot and swollen and painful.Ā  Please feel very sorry for me, and send me some expensive hand made chocolates. I have put a tubigrip on it.Ā  Don't know if I will be fit to work in the park tomorrow.

    Ouch, i think anything on the feet hurts more than anything, no flesh on the feet.
    hope it’s better by tomorrow.
