Thanks Don for your contribution.
Thanks Charles. I agree about concrete. Not only for environmental reasons but we took on our garden 15 years ago when it was almost covered in crazy paving. We’ve been trying to get rid of the stuff wherever we can but it is getting harder as we’re 69 and 72 now, so not “spring chickens”. Still keen on organic gardening though! We still have lots of plans, energy permitting.
I have just ordered your Diary. I’m so looking forward to it. You’re never too old to learn and I love recording gardening progess each year anyway so it will inspire me and serve a useful purpose.
Still weighing up the pros and cons of the greenhouse. I agree with your conclusions but for several reasons to do with installation we may have to go for another polytunnel. Thanks for your time and for the website. Happy New Year and to all the gardeners who contribute.
