How did you find us?

Welcome to Gardeners Corner everyone.

 

Thank you Sheal. Just spotted where you are, the very place my brother inlaw lived for many years before marrying my sister and settling down south here. Like your Avatar!

 

I've done pretty much the reverse @Adrian Dickerson. I'm Essex born and reared and moved from the Southend area to Colchester. From there to the Isle of Man for 24 years and this last move to Inverness-shire 3 1/2 years ago and loving it. There's not much further north I can go!

 

Great and so obviously happy. Glad you're enjoying it all. I, on the other hand, born in Ipswich and moved all the way to Felixstowe some 12 miles away thirty plus years ago and enjoying equally it seems. My other sister moved to Southend, but there's no accounting for taste is there!

 

Yes, I'm soaking up the history too, visiting places I've been reading about for many years.

Ah, Ipswich. Mr S and I spent many a cold, wet evening at Foxhall Stadium with our offspring watching the stock car racing and destruction derby. It's such a long time since I visited Felixstowe that I can't remember what it looks like. You are obviously happy and settled there though.

 

Hi, just joined as I have my first garden of my own! I have never been particularly good with plants but am determined to improve!

 

I looked on google because I've just started growing tomatoes, and cucumber so thought I may....no my mistake....I WILL need help and advice....saw your description on google said friendly so that was it I joined

 

Welcome to Gardeners Corner froobie and Telmadee.

 

Hiya Sheal, thank you so much for your welcome.

 

Hello, I’m Jill
Living in SW France with a largish garden which constantly throws up problems that I need advice on .....

 

Hiya @Jill Gibbard welcome to the forum

 

Welcome to Gardeners Corner Jill.

 

Thankyou so much . I have been looking at posts and have picked up lots of help. I’m rather a novice myself but am pleased to be a member

 

Good evening everyone, thank you for approving my account.

I would describe myself as an amateur gardener but that would be flattering myself. I know how to cut the grass (and I'm pretty sure I'm doing that badly because of the amount of moss I've got) so when my wife was given a beautiful rhododendron as a present I knew I needed serious help to keep it healthy. I googled for a forum and the top result was GardenersCorner. I look forward to chatting with you all but in all honesty the knowledge is only going to flow in one direction!!

Have a great weekend when it comes.

Stuart
