      Hello everyone,

      I'm so sorry I've not popped in to say Hi for ages, I've been having technical problems! I couldn't login since I bought a new mobile phone, the page kept telling me I was using the wrong password, I tried pressing the 'forgot password' button but that didn't seem to work, last night I logged on to the forum on kevs phone (also new & id never logged on via his phone before, I got on straight away) now I can log on from all our devices?? :dunno:

      Anyway I'm here now....I hope you are all keeping well? & your gardens are all taking shape? :blue thumb:
      The hen forum is still keeping me busy :phew:, there's far too many people on there who seem to like a fight (the admin girls soon deal with them!) some of the language on there is vile too, they aren't chilled & friendly like us gardeners! :)

      My garden is slowly taking shape, Kev & I finally finished painting the fences last weekend, just my shed left to paint now :yes:, we also cemented in my vegetable cage, we still need to straighten up the net but that's a job for next weekend :blue thumb: then I can finally get my veg in :).

      Gracious I'm feeling sleepy so I will say goodnight, sleep tight & watch the bed bugs don't bite! :loll:

          Aloha everyone,

          Well it would feel cold if you're not wearing any shorts! :doh: :snork:

          @Beckie76 We've all been missing you on here. :wub2: You need to tell the nasty people on your forum that they will be banned if they say nasty things. Do you need me to send you a whip - or do you have one of your own? :whistle: :heehee:

          We look forward to seeing you on Open Day :)

          We've finished building our extra paved nursery area :dbgrtmb: and I shall hose it down today before putting all the trays and pots of plants there. I've still got to get some turf to cover the cement holding the kerbs in place.

          I've now got to put the oak fascia board on the pergola and need a friend to come along to help. It's at a height of approx. 8ft and is 22ft long. :phew:

          I'm gradually working my way through all the jobs that need doing before Open Day. :)

          Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

          Aloha!

                    Good day everyone
                    @wiseowl you are correct. Just like November. Not happy with this at all. I shall have to throw down some vinyl in the living room and bring the plants in from the unheated greenhouses for the next four nights :doh:

                    I have my boiler iron system heating up and a set of shorty drapes to make and lining to add to another long set. Then it's on to seeing how my seedlings in the cellar are doing.

                    Have a safe and warm day :)

                          Aloha everyone,

                          @wiseowl Will this one do?

                          154_5450.JPG

                          I've already put the sprinkler on as the garden is really suffering now. It was on all day yesterday and shall be on all day today. I just have to keep moving it around.

                          My friend got the old fascia off the pergola with a great deal of difficulty. It was five ply plywood fixed with 50 x 3" cut clasp nails that were never meant to be removed. fortunately he had a pry bar with him. It took nearly two hours to remove everything and my friends arm was giving him trouble by the time he finished. Just holding a heavy pry bar at head height for that length of time would finish me!

                          He then cut the oak planks but they were too heavy for us to hold them in place to be screwed to the pergola as it's at a height of 8ft. A 12ft length of 1" by 6" oak gets pretty heavy :rolleyespink: So we shall wait until Wednesday when Michael shall be coming again.

                          I spent a few hours yesterday removing dead leaves, moss and growing weeds from pots of plants that will need repotting for the plant sale. I filled half a wheelie bin with the rubbish! Then I put them all in trays and onto the new paving. Mrs Shiney can now work on the proper job of repotting. :)

                          Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                          Aloha!

                              @wiseowl I hope you don't stub your toe on it :)
                              @shiney you've gotten enough accomplished for two of us so I feel like I should just take the rest of the day off :)

                              Three nights of freezing temperatures and we're back up into lows of 40f+ and I can start hanging out my plants :hapfeet:

                              Have a safe and warm day :)
