Hello all.

Having just subscribed to the newsgroup I thought I would introduce myself.

I live in a suburb of Sheffield, on the eastern slopes of the Pennines at
about 650 feet. I have a small to medium-sized garden and grow mainly
flowers and shrubs. Much of the garden is in partial shade.

This year I am experimenting with an Earthbox, and have just ordered a
greenhouse. So far I have managed with just a home-made coldframe.

Expect questions on greenhouse gardening in the near future!

Hi Keith and welcome. I hope you will find much pleasure from your
garden, especially the greenhouse.I have been digging my little patch
for 56 years, with a greenhouse for 30 years, and am still learning
from my friends, here.
Happy Gardening to you both and please keep in touch.
Sam.

Hi, Keith, I'm Judith and I live in Norfolk. I am here mostly to
learn but I used to grow grapes at my last house so I might be able to
help you there.

Not that I have any personal knowledge g, but doesn't this sound a bit like
a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous?

I'm not. He doesn't live too far from the Earth Centre which, sadly, is now
closed.

"In September 2004 the attraction closed to the public, and only pre-booked
school parties were allowed. By the end of October, the Earth Centre,
monument to Sustainability, was un-sustainable and was put in the hands of
administrators. "

Not in that case you didn't! There are a few things we really enjoy atm and
wouldn't want to miss but there's an awful lot of rubbish, no doubt about
it.
