    We (HsuH and Mr HsuH) joined the forum ten days ago but have been so caught up in (a) the rich interchange of knowledge and experience and (b) the wit, humour and at times total madness, in various posts that we haven't until now got around to an introduction.:autlvs:

    Currently living in picturesque South Gloucestershire, we have a reasonable sized garden at home which includes a couple of greenhouses. However, the amount of space available for growing veggies was insufficient for our ambitions and the waiting list for local allotments was a minimum of 5 years, so a couple of years ago we acquired a plot via Landshare. This has given us a lot more flexibility for growing a bigger range of veggies as well as access to a large heap of well rotted horse manure from the landowner's stables!

    We were occasional users of the RHS forums (about three postings in two years) but have found this forum to be very dynamic and welcoming so thanks very much to all. :ThankYou:

      Hi and welcome to Gardeners Corner:thumbsup: :snork: Obviously, I'm all of [a] and only the first part of ..........'cos I'm the only sane one around here, the rest of the gang take their medication, wear their "special" jackets [with the straps extra tight:hate-shocked: :heehee:]. and sleep in rubber walled rooms. Then again.................;) :rolleyespink:
