    Hello!

    Just found out about this forum so thought I would check it out. Looking for a friendly place to chat about gardening and dogs and photography and life. But mostly gardening.

      It's getting a bit fraught over there. There's been two rows in the last 3 hours! :D

      Hopefully I will find my way around here as it looks a big forum.

        Hiya @LauraRoslin - there is quite an army of GW refugees on here - all breathing sighs of relief :hapydancsmil::yahoo: you`ll soon find your way around, and any time you`re not sure - just shout 'help' and someone will come to your rescue. Enjoy it.... someone may offer you a white jacket and a box of blue pills though :loll: .....:sign0016: by the way.

          Hello @LauraRoslin and welcome to Gardeners Corner :sign0016:

          We've had a few refugees from GW, and all of them seem to find life here much easier. If you need any help getting around, just ask (to be honest, you don't even need to ask the staff, as the members are really helpful).

          Oh, and don't judge us on the Brexit thread - that stands out as one where we do have a bit of a debate, but it is all good natured at the end of it.

          I look forward to chatting with you around the forums

            I tend not to get involved with Brexit threads. The old rule said 'don't talk about politics or religion in a pub'. It often applies to forums as well! :whistle:

                I wish you hadn't linked to this thread though! At least not without telling me first. :sad:

                  I'd rather not get involved @Zigs - we are better than that here.

                          We waffle on about most things on here, especially in the winter when we get stir crazy for gardening :)

                          We have an annual garden charity open day, hosted by Shiney in Essex :)

                          There is a monthly photo competition and usually some growing competitions during the season :)

                          Oh that sounds good!

                          I have a garden but it's gone a bit to the wild as I've not been well. But I used to have a beautiful garden and luckily I took photos of it so I look at them sometimes to cheer myself up.
