Been out sawing up tree on greenhouse. trying to stay positive, although the rain is not helping. Plans in head for cobbling together some sort of plant shelter, and that OH will take pity and let me buy a new one [ cunning as a fox, well maybe not ]
Enjoy your day.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
Thats the way Doc, Insurance will buy you a nice new greenhouse. Take photo of the damage.
I hope you are a bit more cunning than our resident fox, day before yesterday he buried all the bird food, half a sausage and a meatball in the flower bed, in 4 different places, today he couldnt remember where he had put it and dug up half the border!
Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.
Received your PM thank you KEF. I am now sat amongst seed packets and "what the hell did I save this bit of paper for" bits and pieces from my "gardening bag" sorting you some chilli willies out! No traumatising your neighbours too much will you. I mean I'm all for beautiful plants on the windowsill but are you sure they'll get the joke?;)
(Other contents of said bag include toilet roll inner tubes, two tubes of peak polish, three marker pens, a knife, spare hair band, and three mini clothes pegs...)
Oooh I'm all excited about the new season now! Must sit on my hands and show no temptation to get the propagators out (especially since my partner needs to help me dismantle this greenhouse and make some foundations so that I can have two greenhouses this summer)...
Clari, you cant have too many hair bands and mini clothes pegs, I can never find a hair band, taken off in every room of the house and can never remember where.
Clothes pegs are good for pegging netting to frames.
Probalt take decs down on Sunday, when OH can help.
When I was little my mum used to leave them up until my birthday, we had real candles on the tree then, I loved it as I new it was just for me.
BTW Star Gaze Lily, its the 12th.

Sadly Lyn, no insurance. Greenhouse and shed are in the orchard which is a long way from the house, so insurance Company would not cover any buildings on the land.
it is looking a bit better now though. Bent metal strut straightened, and am starting to replace glass with plastic. I will get there in the end.
Clari don't rub it in about 2 greenhouses!

Pdoc hugs I felt a bit like that when my wooden GH died(40th B'd pressie) it just rotted to the point I was barred from it (when OH home ) No criticism meant at all x but we didn't have out winter holiday last year bought a Rhino instead but do know you need the sun for sanity x
Clari thanks look forward to willy's in the window
Been a really very windy day temperature of 11C but has felt bitter Just been picking up and moving snow weighted damaged stuff and now snug inside. OH has taken down the o/s lights that were plugged into house as even on breathing vent the room was very cold .
At least we don't have the - temps that Lizzie & DD have
Don't think it's much better for LilyP, Lesley & the missing Fairy...soz to any real northerns I haven't mentioned.
Think it's time to prepare the gruel and dry bread ..just wish I hadn't already sucked the chocolate from OH's brazil nuts ...as per Mrs Brown's boys not a weird thing I do

Always think it looks weird for awhile when they come down.

So sad about that Doc, have you lost many plants,
Pdoc hugs I felt a bit like that when my wooden GH died(40th B'd pressie) it just rotted to the point I was barred from it
