    ooooh, lots of room in there Wonky  imageMaybe even fit in a chair for you and cats image

    Fairy, I dozed off too.....not much else to do in constant drizzle image

    I hope you had good weather for your coastal drive, Hosta.

    BusyL, there is roof, walls, door and window! Can't attach gutter yet but it's up and running, as tested by myself, the cats and the seedlings image

     Fairy, I awarded myself with roast lamb as it's papa wombles 70 th today image so cooked a slap up roast with all the bits! image not much of a chocolate fan but let me loose on a deli cheese counter and there could be trouble! 

    Hosta, we have rain here now but the garden is like a desert so you can send me yours if you like but if you could make it at night, I'm working tomorrow image

    Joyce image there is a chair but it takes up too much room and is almost too comfortable, might affect productivity! image Harrie the house cat has pointed out that rain doesn't prevent visits to the garden now, and Flatters is very pleased as he was having to go next door and use their greenhouse to sleep in, now he has a better one! Happy cats!

    Great stuff, Wonky!  I'm glad the cats approve - that's obviously the most important thing!  image

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    See original post

     That's the general idea Wonks- nothing like a bit of pondering....image

    If anyone wants rain - we've had enough now. Happy to forward it. It's to be cold here tonight too Hosta. Wonder if the 'cooncil' will send the gritters out - otherwise it may be a tad slippy going to work in the morning image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Wonky that is fab, and really puts me to shame (still pondering position of lean to greenhouse and planning to have it done 'by the end of the year'!). Well done! 

    Fairy, yes please to the rain. The garden is so dry I had to water it properly on Friday. We were due rain most of today, but just had a very light shower for about 5 minutes this afternoon. None forecast for the next 10 days either (I may yet eat my words, of course). Amazing how different it can be at either end of the country.

    Great greenhouse Wonky. Even better if you can find a spot for the gin opticimage 

    I'm like you LG - very disappointed with weather forecast. 90% probability of heavy rain all afternoon turned into a 15min light sprinkle.imageimageimage The cat didn't even bother to move out of the flower bed.
