Hi PIB and welcome to the nut house! You're gonna love it!!!
I spent 10 yrs in Quarters (5 in total) and during that time grew most of my veg in tubs, baskets etc, Put shrubs and stuff in the gardens but it was always so sad to let them go.
Finally we have our own place and a lottie to boot which is heaven!
Good luck with your new beds and boarders, love you're "blank canvas" attitude!

thanks for all the welcomes and there is loads of reading for me to do - I may be some time

I'm a home-growing veg bird, one that has to move house quite often (married to the Air Force ) - just moved into RAF Benson in Oxfordshire.
We have been here since early September, I (with help from the lad) have dug several borders, LOL

Get the Pongos who guard your fence in to dig the garden over...get hubby to tell them it is an exercise.

ain't that so true - the lad has 8 years before he hangs up the cap, so it's raised beds (for speed, no time to sort the soil in quarters) and pots for a while yet

I know that... Apparently the OH's great-grandfather was famous for jumping off Launceston castle with an umbrella when it was windy, to see if he'd fly... Hmmmm... Half-cut?! Probably! He only broke both legs, so was quite lucky really
