Default New greenhouse

As i type i can see out my window my lovely husband digging and leveling and working so hard to get the ground ready to put up my greenhouse.
we were gonna do it at the end of summer ready for next year coz we have lots of work to do in the garden. But as he forgot my birthday last year he got up this morning and started clearing so that on my birthday this year i can go and play with my new toy. I can't wait i don't think i have ever looked forward to a b'day quite as much as now.

Perhaps you could get them to help with your planning?
