    Hi :hello:

    Hayfever a lot better:D

    Stuart - the local honey thing does work I think. I buy local honey for Mr SMF2 as he loves honey but sadly I don't like it - where ever it comes from LOL.

    Hanging baskets are easy - using previous year's baskets just empty out all of last years soil. Put about one tray of bedding plants into the empty basket. You probably won't need any extra soil. A tray of violas like these

    can be quite cheap. I paid about £4 for a tray in homebase I think - I did have a 15% off voucher.

    If you don't have hanking baskets from previous year you can buy them from £3.99

    www.homebase.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=20001&partNumber=042023&Trail=searchtext>HANGING+BASKET

    or even as cheap as £1.49

    www.homebase.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=20001&partNumber=792603&Trail=searchtext>HANGING+BASKET

    I like the Rattan ones myself.

    Well done on the gardening - after two years of looking like it was fit only for the compost heap my climbing clematis has finally made some progress. thanks goodness I was patient! Know what you mean about the hayfever though. Without fail I sneeze about 10 times on waking up - I'm exhausted before I even get out of bed! :rotfl:
