      This cardboard box caused fear and panic to sweep the UK yesterday. A picture of it in a national newspaper sent millions of shoppers rushing out to strip the shelves.

      Will the shops be stripped of gardening stuff again, like they were last March?

          Those empty cardboard boxes are great for the compost heap.

                  How are you doing? This sort of thing is tough at any time, but given what we are all facing at the moment it amplifies things significantly.

                  If it helps, if you want to scream, shout, swear or just plain bend an ear my inbox is always open (in full confidence of course); I am also certain that I won't be the only one in being here if you want to sound off at any point.

                  Be extra kind to you and yours.

                      @JWK & @Upsydaisy
                      Yes and I really do appreciate that.
                      We're fortunate we still have a Christmas day to share with the family (I really felt for those who have lost even that) so lots of cooking (and my keith floyd impression:Wino:) to focus on. We'll have the pleasure of the first Christmas with our great grandson and I'll have the pleasure of my greenhouse if everything gets a bit to boisterous :heehee:

                          Heating has just packed up.
                          What else can go wrong.

                                Its ok, had the boiler 20 yrs, just found out its got a reset button if it overheats.
                                Put a new towel rail in the bathroom and got a lot of trapped air in the system, switching pump on and off to shift the air caused the boiler to overheat.:doh::biggrin:
