Bob Flowerdew says he now advocates growing vines in big containers
and keeping them inside in summer and outside in winter. Yes that
way round. I forget the reasoning but have heard him say it more than

Our vines grow in the garden without any protection.


You get better weather there than we do in Scotland


I'm not sure that he does. You've got the Gulf Stream where you are. I
can remember years on Lewis when we never had a frost - apart from on
the mountains.
