    Right here are some more photos before it snows! (The clouds are looking very threatening).

    My slightly broken shed and a couple of sinks.

    Not sure what this is...but it's one of the few things in the flower bed.

    The two trees and pampas grass. Also showing the ground at the far end where we get the sun.

    You need to upload the photos to a hosting site like Flickr or Photobucket and then you get the address of the photo from the address bar and then click on the image button in the reply space. Paste the URL there and that's your photo posted.

  • Whoop whoop. I just checked my chilis on top of the boiler and I have a PIP through.:j
    Took it out of it's nice and warm but dark spot and put it on a windowsill to survey the snow.:eek: I know I have a reptile heat mat somewhere in a box (I seem to have hundreds of boxes though) So if it turns up i'll put it under the pot just so it doesn't get too much of a shock.

    Sorry for the silence - had a bad car crash on the weekend so have been keeping my head down and counting my blessings. Hoping to get out in the garden this weekend once I can move properly again.

    Oh dear. That doesn't sound good. :(
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    LV Sorry to hear that but very pleased you're still here to tell the tale.

    Off on holiday in a couple of hours...why do I always seem to find flights that need a middle of the night departure from my home!
    Hope your peppers pop up OK MBE,look forward to sowing my own when I'm back next week.
    Keep warm and safe everyone.

    The seeds I planted over a week ago have finally all germinated. They will spend a few more days in little tubs next to the radiator until I can get some nice soil to move them into. I've saved up loads of plastic bottles to use as incubators to keep the bugs off them for as long as possible.
    On the topic of bugs, does anyone know of a really good insecticide? My pepper plants now have some little bug things making what looks like little cobwebs and I want the !!!!!!s gone.

    mbe i love your cell layout

    little vics that sounds awful, hope you are okay and feel up to it soon.
