          Thanks Shiney. :) Your baskets will look good no matter how far advanced they are.

          Oh, and I'm about to pick the last of the runner beans - they've done well. :)

                He's certainly a good looking cat :blue thumb: You better be careful that Mrs Shiney doesn't come and offer him a heated 5ft x 3ft propagator and carpeted shelf in his own greenhouse! :heehee:
