    Certainly sounds like we will all need central heating fully working this next week. KEFimage

    Sure does Gilly, not looking forward to it. Have got most of my things into GH & nice pots that might crack. We got a couple of old pallets and H has made more makeshift staging, I seem to have acquired more plants this year, wonder why? The old GH has pallets on the floor to keep things off the slabs and let some air circulate. Dunno where rest will go (hardy plants but in terracotta) maybe under hedging at sheltered side of GH, rather lose the pots than the newbie plants who have taken their GH space. Bubble wrap at the ready image

    Didn't see you there Dove, I just bit the bullet and paid at B&Q, on pensioner's day image, well H did imageimage...didn't need too much had some from last year. Also have some white stuff a bit like flexible polystrene that I line old GH with...by product of H's old job. Poor description but it does the job. Might line conservatory windows with it. That was a joke..I think image

  • Wow, just as I posted that the doorbell rang and there was a young man with his arms wrapped around a roll of bubblewrap - isn't GW influential!!! image
