  Urgh, this is the time of year I come back on here, after being dormant for winter lol.
  Everything's going to the pan!

  I wonder how many of our members have transferred to Gardeners Corner? I have taken a look at GC but it didn't look very inspiring.

  Many of us are giving it a chance. Maybe we'll grow to like it or at least become comfortable with the format.
  There actually seems to be one or two things that are better but it's awful cluttered

  I’m so sad.  I don’t post very often but love looking at other posts, all of which are so informative and interesting.  Seriously considering cancelling my Gardener’s World magazine subscription 😠

  Yes, I am hoping lots of people do, and stop using the website, and buying any of their offers. I am sure it won't do much good, but it is the only way you can get back at a business. 

  How can you lie there and think of England

  Yikes! I will feel a bit of a wanderer if I join GC as I’ve not been here that long. I joined, as I’ve likely said before (old age thing), because it give me an answer to my question and I wanted to give back in return if I could. Since I joined I’ve logged in most days, seen some great advice and beautiful pictures – long may we all grow….

  PS Feel a bit sorry for GC admin , but they must be doing a decent job with the numbers joining - well done to them....

  I don't know why people subscribe to the magazine anyway...you can access electronic copies via your local library to any device you have.

  I’ve just taken the plunge and signed up for Gardeners Corner, already received confirmation of approval. ( Hope they won’t regret it!)
  I’ve registered as Ergates, so you can recognise or avoid me as appropriate!
  I’m now frantically thinking if I have any burning questions I want answered before this forum closes, just in case I can’t get my head round the new one!
