Thanks to the advice gang. I had originally planned to dig the

I lived in the far north of Scotland but I don't think they appreciate
fully the implications of that.

A continuous foundation it shall be.

Sounds rather like a green supplier than a greenhouse one.

The 'bolt it down securely' advice is good for just about anywhere in
the country.


Well screw it down into heavy-duty rawlplugs anyway. A greenhouse is
remarkably heavy and wind resistant once all that glass is installed.

And wind is remarkably playful...

Oops! Pardon!
