    Hi folks missed yesterday as extremely busy. Well PAd for yesterday £5 and today was £1. so total PAD £6.

    Got a bit of a dilemma. I really want a greenhouse but can't really afford one. I have tried free ads and freecycle but no luck. Just trying to work out if I would make £200 in Fruit and veg this year to make it pay??? Did quite well last year with potatoes, carrots and salad but the tomatoes didnt quite manage in the plastic lean to thing I have. I could use the money I am getting from amazon and matched betting to buy it instead of paying off my debt but I also like the idea of nearly clearing a card:confused:

    Anyway have a good weekend all.

    last year was a terrible summer and loads of people had trouble with their tomatoes. Don't forget green tomato chutney is great. With a decent summer you will find your plastic lean to fine i reckon. But if you want one.....the savings over the years will pay for it!

    Pop over to the old style board - they are fantastic there:A
    Have a look at the store cupboard challenge
    Grocery challenge
    Meal plans for the week ahead
    And not forgetting Twinks hobnobs - fantastic for elevenses, twelveses or half past fourses as they say on the TV ad - be warned they are addictive.
