    Manchester. Or no so funny as it happens. Just on our 5th day of rain:dunno:
    I may not be loving it but the garden certainly is. It’s looking very lush right now. I’m relatively new to gardening so I’m afraid I’ll be asking lots of questions.. keen to learn though.

          Welcome enc, when it rains here, the old guys shake their heads and say, " It won´t be enough."
          My paternal side were from Manchester, it´s a great place to come from.

          Welcome to the forum! Over here, if someone tries to complain about rain, we usually respond, "It's better than snow!".
