    Morning all. I’m a new member to the site, and I’m joining as I’ve recently moved home.

    I’ve moved from a cottage (which had a fairly established garden) to a new build, which has a complete blank canvas.

    I live in Penkridge, Staffordshire, with my husband and Labrador. I’m a very novice gardener, but as this is our ‘forever home’ I’m really keen to improve and get stuck in! Love the outdoors, cooking, nice meals out, and the theatre.

    looking forward to chatting with everyone, Chris

        Hello and welcome. I confess I had to Google Penkridge! It looks like a very pretty place. And it has a market too. I love a good market. :)
