Hi from NE Scotland

Hi All

I am glad I found this forum, I wanted one from the UK as I believe those here might know more of my situation and weather than those in far off lands.

I live in a mobile home in NE Scotland, about 1 mile north of a small village called St Cyrus. I dont grow much here as the ground and weather is not too suitable. I have 23 Heathers, all grown in pots, 3 Roses, and 8 Rhododendrons/Azaleas. I am hoping I can get some help to growing these plants more successfully.

I live here on my own but have many friends visit and also have my Dachshund, Frankie and 2 Senegal Parrots, Nacho and Roxy.

Cheers

Nigel

 

Hi....welcome to GC

 

Welcome to GC Nigel. I hope you'll enjoy the forum. There's lots of friendly and knowledgeable people on here who'll give you all the help and advice you need.

 

Welcome to GC Nigel. You'll find so much here

 

Welcome to GC

 

Thanks for the welcomes. In a way I feel a bit guilty cos I dont know too much and can see myself asking questions often. Thats fine I guess but I would also like to put something back in and on the gardening side I wont be too good at that because of my lack of knowledge.

I can though perhaps help if there are any computer related problems or some photographic advice.

I have a few things to do here first and later on this morning I will have a good look around the site.

Catch ya laters

Welcome Nigel. I live in salsburgh half way between Glasgow and Edinburgh. You will enjoy this site. I love heather and one has died so will be grateful for any tips. I've moved some heather that's also turning brown

 

Hi Nigel, welcome to the forum, I know how you feel about asking questions, I was the same, but everybody is really friendly, helpful and patient - hope you enjoy your time here with use how it envy your style of living, it sounds fabulous. When you get settled in could we have a pic of Frankie please? I love sausage dogs, they are fabulous - we have a pets corner on here where you can post him :0)

 

Sure Lynda, I have some good photos of Frankie and will post them by the weekend. But, a word of warning, I am not normal and can be a little crazy at times. . I will give a clue... Frankie likes dressing up.

 

Welcome to GC Nigalius. What is normal? Take a look around and you'll come across the banter that gets going here at times, it'll make you wonder!

 

*Ahem!*

Nigel, thank you for joining us here at GC.
Never feel guilty about asking questions and feeling like you have nothing to give back - I was all questions and confusion when I joined too. Only recently have I felt confident enough to answer questions too - and that's because it is amazing just how quickly you learn new things and by trying new things your knowledge soon expands

Aha! Computers and photography, eh? Those subjects are quite active on here too (to one degree or another).

Grab a cuppa, pull up a chair and .... dive in!

 

Good for you Nigel, I think you and me will get along just fine I have an Italian Spinone who also dresses up, mainly Easter, Halloween and Xmas but anytime it takes my fancy really. I have never seen a sausage dog dressed up - I can't wait! Have a good evening x
