    Why continue to post on that "other site" if you feel more comfortable on this one ? Seems a bit pointless to suffer from people ignoring or belittling your comments when it can easily be avoided.

      And a very warm welcome to Gardeners Corner @Parrot - did you come here purely to discuss other websites, or will you be taking part in other discussions as well?

          Thank you for your welcome Fat Controller.
          Early days but hopefully the answer to your question will be Yes.

            Ah, that is good to hear! Well, there are a good few folks here to chat with, and a good bit of knowledge when it is needed also. We love to see photos of just about anything (within reason of course), and we try not to take life too seriously. Look forward to seeing you around.

              Hey all! I found this forum when I googled gardening forums. I've just moved into a new house with quite a big garden which someone has previously given a lot of TLC. Thing is, I know how to mow the lawn, trim the hedge and just about nothing else :biggrin:. So I'll be watching loads of YouTube videos (any recommendations would be gratefully accepted) and asking a bunch of questions on here.

                            Hello, l've just joined after doing some anxious online searching about fireblight. I suspect it's bad news for our new rowan-oh dear! But looking forward to talking to other gardeners.
