    I'm new to forums and would like to introduce myself

    I have radical plans for my garden and would like to document the entire overhaul

    My radical plans will surely cause some heated debate but please be kind... I'm new to this

        Thank you upsydaisy

        I've just created my first real thread in "general gardening" straight into the deep end!

        My garden is a mess... absolute jungle, I can't wait to reflect on this in three years time

        Or even sooner fingers crossed

          Welcome to the forum!

          We all have had messes to handle and know it is a lot of work but very satisfying work. Gardening sure keeps you in shape. And then you get to sit and admire your project :)

            Thank you Lori,

            Maybe I can shift some of the extra weight I've gained these last two years

            Ate my first home grown strawberries last week and really feel the rewards already

                  @Michael Hewett

                  Hello Michael,

                  I'm just starting to draw the layout for members to view and give advice on.

                  Speaking of advice.. what would be the best way to document my progress?

                  I briefly used a forum many years ago and i think it had a public diary

                  I don't think people could comment via the diary though

                  So maybe I should start a thread somewhere?

                  Thanks for the welcome

                  There's a section called 'Members Gallery' where some people document their gardens, you could try there. There's also a section for new gardeners, don't know if you are new to gardening or just forums. There's also a 'General' section but that's more for general questions I think.
                  Anyway people would be able to put comments wherever you post your thread.

                  Maybe you could have a browse and see where you think it would fit in best.
