      Jim is NOT an Agony Aunt Armandii; he doesn't want all this; he's not even had a chance to enter the shed yet,

          :sign0016: Jim - as you can see from the posts, yeah there's a lot of madness going on around here. It's a wonder any of us have time to do any gardening or can be trusted with a spade in our hands. But hey ho spring is almost here and we will settle down when we can get out there and get our hands dirty - In the meantime enjoy the time in the corner.

            :ThankYou:Thanks for all the welcomes (is welcomes a word?)

            I've never met a sane gardener yet.

            Talking of frogs......This man walks into a posh restaurant and asks the waiter 'Do you have frogs legs?', the waiter replied 'No sir, I always walk like this.' :huh:
            (am I still welcome?)

              Welcome to GC, Jim :sign0016:

              "Still" welcome? Sounds to me like you'll fit right in! :heehee:

              Totally understand how having children can mess with the best laid plans in life (little blighters have a way of worming their way into your heart, eating away at your time - and decimating your wallet). Hmm, maybe you could encourage them to do the veg growing? ;) Not talking child labour, more "educational experiments" :biggrin:

              Looking forward to getting to know you around the forum.
