    Got home yesterday to find my new greenhouse had arrived and Martin was furious as the large toughned glass panes were in 2ft boxes and there was just nothing to it.

    I had to listen to Martin twitter on all night about it so 1st thing this morning I phoned the company up ony to find that it was not the greenhouse but the staging and I should have read the order form more carefully.

    Well that put me in my place!

    :D :D :D Sorry, Waco ... but this falls along the lines of the thread a while ago about reading instructions first!

    actually the instructions were not very clear (honestly) AND the sales man was very relieved when we descovered the simple error AND it has given Martin a wake up call to get on with organising the job!

    Mr D had a good laugh at that one, Waco!

    Will you fit Kew into your green house, though? Won't you need another one too? :rolleyes: [​IMG]

    Just as well you discovered the mistake or you could have ended up with a VERY small greenhouse!
