    Hi folks,

    I was searching through tapatalk and came across the forum. I'm used to forums, mainly cars, and find them a huge help for advice etc.

    I'm over in Northern Ireland, in a small eastern coastal town, not too far from Belfast.
    Can see Scotland on a good day!

    We have a decent sized garden, consisting of front, rear and some to one side, mainly all grass apart from a driveway.

    I'm not a gardener but would like to learn more, from improving my grass to decent plants for certain areas.

    Thanks

        Welcome to Gardeners Corner cosmichamster. :) I can see Scotland on a good day too and the Mountains of Mourne, but if we see those here on the island it usually means it's going to rain. :doh:

        There's a lot of knowledge amongst members here and they'll be willing to help you along the way. I'll probably see you in the 'Lawns' forum at some time. :)

          You'll love it! The atmosphere as well as the racing is brilliant. :) Visitor numbers are up again this year, the roads have just opened after practice and there's a constant rumble going through my village at the moment......it's busy out there! :)
