OK a quick update on the veg plot, The green house now has varieties of toms and peppers, cucumbers, little gems and chili's

I've cleared the back of the garden and made some raised beds

There's still quite a bit to do, I'm putting a crazy paved path from the shed, around the back of the veg plots back to the gate.
And the whole lot so far has cost me around £10 to £15, thats the green house, shed, slabs and crazy paving (not including the plants, pots and compost)......:D
