Garden Girl I - I have 2 coldframes with just sand, 1 cold frame with earth but this year it has had weed matting on it and the cold frame in the shade has polystyrene on the bottom. When I have tenderish plants in them I put polystyrene around the walls too.
Edd - there are other women in the village apart from me!
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Gg Bob F had his twins with him - think he had his hands full He lives not too far away, so this is his local supermarket - don't want to pester him when he's 'off duty'
Folks - don't forget The Apprentice Final tonight 9pm!

KEF, I have yet to find out what OH has done about recording Strictly. I hope it's OK or there won't be any curry until June! I feel for you.
3 of my coldframes aren't movable, built of bricks with air pockets in them.
Mine is not going to be moved it will stay in same place, so is a cold frame warm enough with out polystyrene in for the plants
Thanks Busy-Lizzie I will go for sand in the bottom
My cold frame has a gravel base which keeps most weeds down, and easy to pull those that do grow, Gg.
