I would love to bring the weather with me, but I fear I would also make a lot of enemies pretty fast, due to all the extra watering needed. I am looking to be within 3 hours to London. South West area I think at the moment. So much has to happen before I can move though (the joy of a slow property market here in France.) I have also been looking at the north of France but I think I would prefer to return to England.
Hi Nicky, so nice to meet a fellow gardener in France. I am in Haute Garonne with stunning views of the pyrenees. Gardening is very challenging here with the extremes of weather, and very heavy clay soil. Pouring with rain at the moment and still waiting to plant out aubergines and peppers.

Hi Nicky and welcome
When you come back to the UK, please could you manage to bring that wonderful climate with you from Antibes?
Which general area in the UK are you bound for?

Hello Nicky
Hello Nicky. Welcome to the madhouse
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

You could bring us sunny days and we could have our English rain at night - that'd be ok

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me too.
Hi Nicky, I also lurk in the background a lot too. I'm sure you'll find the forum very informative and friendly.
