    Afternoon all,

    Just popping by to introduce myself and mingle with fellow gardeners.

    Small garden in NW London, some flowers, some veg, some pots, some growbags. Passionate gardener for over 20 years, following a family tradition (father over 70 and still growing all his own veg :-) - recently received 1.5k of his Sutton's Foremost new spuds in the post, as a treat for his daughter :-), bless.

    Ah, rain stopped, time to get a few more beetroot seeds sowed.

    Look forward to chatting soon!

    Effy

      Hi Spruce... thank you, I will. Aren't those Vic gardens wonderful - so much character, and often hidden surprises. :spinning:

            Hi Effy, welcome to GC :sign0016:

            I'm not a million miles from you, and can sympathise with you about the rain today - I got pretty soaked only being out in it for a few minutes.

            You still not had any Jenny? Was a wet night overnight Thursday into yesterday, been wet again today and we've just had another heavy shower. Normally, you seem to get it about an hour or so after I do when its coming in from the west - - I'll try and blow some your way :)
