Operation 'Recover' has begun..........

@Fat Controller if you manage to get a lift next year to Shineyland we can let you have an Annabelle (ordinary one) as I think we are getting a few suckers coming along. Mrs Shiney will check.

 

Ooooh, that sounds just champion @shiney - thank you. Coming to shineyland next year is one of my wee 'personal goals', and I am hoping to be fit enough to mooch a lift to be there; I really missed not seeing you both, and the rest of the GC gang, this year.

 

I would love to have a marine tank, but it is way above my skill level, and even further above my budget level.

We are going tropical, as it is what we have wanted for all those years, but are going to be in no rush to get the tank filled. I had a tropical tank when I was kid, and loved it (watching the fish was better than the TV!). I will post a thread in the hobbies section shortly, and I will tag you on the post as I will be wanting all the advice I can get

 

Your personal taxi service is ready and awaiting as promised

 

That's a great offer, John. So I'll reserve two places for you.

 

Thank you @JWK, I fully intend to take you up on your kind offer - you sir, are a gentleman

 

Let there be no doubt, the support that I have had, both practical help and moral support, from the GC gang has been massive. I would not be as mobile as I am now without it, and nor would I have been able to take those first steps toward reclaiming my garden from the wild. My kitchen has even benefited from the herbs and edibles that I have been given.

There is no better friend than a GC friend!
