      Thank you all so much for your welcome greeting :):):)

      Do I have to go into one of the other pages to ask for help or ask questions?

      That would be best as this is an introduction area. Have a look around to see what forums suit your particular questions and don't worry if you think you've put something in the wrong place. :)

        Hi @Sheal

        Thank you for the advice, oh my, I've had a real good look at the other forums and there is just about everything, so I've taken my chances in what I think is the right one and posted my questions :)

          Yes, GC has just about everything and when the growing season starts coming to a close we share a bit of banter in the Off Topic Discussion to keep us going through the winter months. :)

          If a thread has been placed in the wrong forum somebody from admin will usually move it.

                          What a long day.... Started at 9am and finished in the garden just before I had to put a torch on my head.... Progress today... Saw a dizzy bee first:hate-shocked: need to find out what that tree/shrub is? Weeded between the veggies and sadly talked to them hoping nothing eats them before I have my first tasting ... Cut the grass.... Weeded out the areas I started in.... Saved from killing/sourcing an Acer by getting great advice on GC :hapydancsmil:thank you @Dips, @Spruce, @CharlieBot, Visited the garden center.... Bought evergreen and spreaded it as instructed...I think! Not good with measurements or walking at a set pace! I get distracted by all the weeds laughing at me....Took Tess for a walk :doggieshmooze: Filled some pots, planted some new little toms as having read up on them ....I've left my first ones to run! They look like triffids! :psnp:Followed instructions on how to get a fuchsia to grow into a tall fancy bush so tenderly plucked off leaves where required...this being a cut off which grew roots in a wine glass on the kitchen windowsill, ate the ripe strawberries in the greenhouse whilst doing so... Watered everything, tidied up and put everything back in the shed... It's a full time job this gardening :huh: so had a well earned G&T and off to bed..... Exhausted :snooze:
