  • Hi from down under!

    Hi everyone my name is Steve from Perth Western Australia, originally from Hampshire in the UK.

    I've been building/preparing a small veggie patch in our garden over the past couple of months.
    Found this website and thought I'd join as there is a lot of great information and help.

    Here are a couple of photos of my patch in progress. I have potatoes which have just sprouted, carrots sowed and French beans started in pots.

                              Ello, ello! Another flippin' aussie! Mind you - over here where I am is like chalk and cheese to you

                              Hello from over here, and up here (snowy mountains NSW).

                              I haven't seen the ends of the carrots either, in case you're interested Bill :P
