  • Big Grin All over My Face!!!

    At risk of everything going bossoms up, my luck appears to be well and truly on the turn.
    Step son works for Environment Agency and they are doing a big "Culvert Job" locally. Called up the other day to say that the chap whose land they are working on had a 6X8 greenhouse on it and he wanted it gone - was I interested? WADDAYOUTHINK???
    Anyway, went down there with SS and Mr Teez in the van, and now it's all dismantaled and stacked safely in the barn - complete with base. Only two panes of glass were cracked and I've got to get a few new nuts and bolts, but I'm really made up!
    Better still, the AE get rid of a terrific lot of stuff that we Wombles can make use of. SS has promised me as much 12" black plastic Culvert as I can use. (He's going to cut it into two foot legnths for me). Tomato pot problem solved!
    So if you lot happen upon the EA doing any work in your area, for goodness sake ASK!! They will probably be only too happy to let you have stuff as it saves them having to load it all up and cart it back to the depot!

              I've as good as given up on the free greenhouse I was hoping to get.
              I know someone who works for one of the local councils parks department and a fella he works with knows someone who wants a greenhouse taking out of his garden.

              There's a greenhouse somewhere with my name on it - but the only guy who knows where it is won't get his act in gear and arrange for me to go and remove it. My contact is now so sick of asking for me that I'm as good as starting to think up Plan B.

              Still...
              ...happy for you Creemteez.
