    Welcome from me too :smile:
    Like you, I am retired and have arthritis, but I find pottering in the garden very beneficial to physical and mental health.
    I am new here also and I hope you enjoy it as much as I have done :dbgrtmb:

          :sign0016: to GC @DerekP lovely to have you join us.

          Sounds like your summers are very busy with gardening and family orientated fun!

          Have a good nosey around and ask away on anything you are uncertain about. Looking forward to reading your posts :thumbsup:

            Welcome to GC @DerekP :sign0016:

            I can only echo what others have said - our members are without doubt the best of the best; a more friendly and helpful bunch you could not ask for.

            We love photos, and we love to hear what you are up to (gardening or not), and I am sure that you will whittle away quite a few hours in the good company here. I look forward to chatting with you around the forums.

            PS - have no fear of asking any questions here; the only silly question is the one that you don't ask.

                Welcome to the forum! I too have clay to contend with and like you, I have raised beds to try to sidestep the headache.

                You will love this group!
