Really need some help, badly!!!!

So sorry to hear your sad story. I do hope you get it sorted out and get all your things back. It must be so distressing to have something like that happen and I can not begin think how you must be feeling. Last year I had someone take a short cut over the fence as they running away from the police and they jumped through my greenhouse and broke all the glass and the greenhouse had only been up a few weeks, I was nearly in tears over that, but its nothing compared to how you have suffered. Do let us know what the outcome is. Good Luck

Talkback: Hedgehogs and foxes

I haven't seen Hedgehog in my garden for such a long time. We have recently had a garage put up with a new side gate and my husband has left a gap at the bottom of the gate for the hogs to pass through (I hope).

Rissa, I have used Premier Seeds and have had great success with them. Gook Old Ebay

I've got a heated propagator, my husband got it for me. At the moment I've got Alstromerias in there and the tempreture is just over 80F. I have got Begonias to grow and the tempreture for them will be about 70F. This is my first year with a heated propagator and I am looking forward to putting it to good use.

Talkback: Garden birds

I haven't had many birds in my either, and RSPB Bird Watch was disapointing to say the lest as I hardly counted any birds compared to last year.
Just lately though I have notice the Blue Tits starting to check out the nesting boxes and I've got two Robins coming into the garden, so spring must be just around the corner, I hope.

I've used seeds from Lidl for the last few years and I have had great success with them. My cucmbers were lovely. I can not see the point paying so much for seeds from the well known brands when the Lidl seeds do just as well and produce such lovely plants.

A new stock of Lidl seeds will be in this week I think. I'll be there having a look and no doubt buying some more

Lidl always have good bargain seeds and they are very good.

Talkback: Waiting for the snow to thaw

Posted: 29/01/2013 at 17:00
The snow has long gone here in Bournemouth. It is now blowing a gale and pouring with rain. Had a look round the garden yesterday and the bulbs are pushing their heads up and a few things have new shoots showing including my Fuchsias. I love the spring, the blue tits are even checking out the nesting box, so spring is definitely coming.
