    Hi. This looks like a nice place to come get some advice, and hopefully help & inspire others too.

    I'm one of life's 'Busy' people, doing my best to strike a balance between doing and 'overdoing'.

    Lots of hobbies including

    Vegetable Gardening of course, including with 'new' Greenhouse, acquired derelict last autumn & fixed up

    All sorts of DIY

    Computer stuff, using and fixing ; good old fashioned 'proper' Tower PC.

    Sewing: project make a Dress from scratch progresses very slowly, yes, for me.

    Fixing my old 230,000 mile, nearly 20yr old car / camper, she took us on a 1,300mile tour as far as Germany last month. We sleep in it too.

    Interests also in personal-empowerment and life coaching ....and lots more

    I posted some photos to my photo area, for your perusal & interest, and maybe some helpful comments too.

    Drop me a line, specially if you're new too.

    Location.... as my user name.

    I mostly garden in the rear garden and the rear of the house faces north, I think. I don't really know much about my soil as my cheap pH tester seemed to be useless, but I think its pretty good.

    The Avatar is me & my partner in one of our favourite places, Scotland with the car in the background

    I'm a Touch-Typist, so sometimes I write far too much, like here !!

      Hello @MostlyVegsSouthCotswolds! A very warm :sign0016: to the forum. You sound a bit like me.....always busy! :hapydancsmil:
      We are a friendly bunch & like to have a giggle from time to time as well as chat about our gardens. I'm in lunch break at work at the moment so will have a look for your photos later.

      Thank You everybody for taking the time & trouble to reply and welcome me. I hope the remainder of your workday went well @Beckie76. Thank you for the Crafting suggestion @Dips. Luvin the spinning flower Emoji @Fern4 and not got a clue what MVSC is short for @Sheal.

      I've just spent the afternoon playing SingStar, I'm such a great singer (sic)!! :yay: and failing to get a stubborn bolt to move on the car; so the Door will have to stay on !! :wallbanging:

      :ThankYou:

                Hi MVSC

                I'm new to the forum too, you sound like me trying to keep everything juggling at the same time. :hapfeet:

                Hopefully we will get chance to exchange ideas along the way :):)
