38 days to go! Brought to you by ELO's 10538 Overture

I've built the growhouse and I'm very pleased. It is very light so when the wind dyes down I'll put it outside positioned with some heavy stones in the bottom otherwise it will blow away! It was really easy to build.
I resisted buying more seeds at Lidl today, I've got all the ones I need but they do have their garden range in store so brought some plant wire, 2 for £3.5 -
Exciting stuff can't wait to see pictures of it. My plastic cover is still in place but my goodness it's windy. It's so hard to resist all things gardening for sure.Save £12k in 25 No 49

Thanks for stopping by @TallGirl @SpendingPennies @killerpeaty @grogged @eat_that_frog Just 4 weeks to go! Thank you for being with me on the final weeks of my journey!
Growhouse is now situated in the garden. Empty but ready to use! I’m hoping it will warm up enough so when I sow I can use the grow house rather than the window sills in every room!
15 NSDs so far this month. I did treat myself to a new flask for my coffee this week, I broke the lid on the old one sadly.
Money shuffle done ready for next month (“the month”) and I’m 98.42 mortgage neutral!
