Just fitted one, the old one was cracked & literally fell apart as I touched it.
I didn't use silicone, all nice & tight. No leaks. Fingers crossed.
All good & lovely weather here, weeded my rear borders & swept

I'm going to buy plants tomorrow or the weekend for my pots etc.
Last year I got some lovely pink daisies & they were great. Ones come out again.
I'll be gardening soon for my custards. Then I'll be moaning I'm too busy.
Definitely going to start night college in September to L3 gas. It's my local college & just up the road. It's 2 evenings a week for 35 odd weeks.
The sun makes me a lot happier.

cucumer,tomatoes,dailis,maragolds,sweet peas, sunflower, flower baskets, at this stage I just scatter the seeds in a tray of compost, then what pops up I put in small pots and nurchure them up from there, Been fitting new panels in the greenhouse too, they're polycarbinate and they fade and crack after a couple of years, the geenhouse is like new now,,

Save It's not needed dc, but more than that I've now developed a real hatred of scraping the old mastic off these joints. For me, by not using it I'm making the next person to take the joint apart life's a little easier.

I'm thinking about planting out my 4 cucumber plants that I managed to incubate in old plastic milk bottle tomorrow.
Would they be OK left in the garage?

they'll be ok in the garage for now, don't plant them out till after May and only then if its warm, Cucumber are very unstable, I grow at least 20 from seed knowing i'll only end up with about 4 or 6 by the time July is here, I don't know why they die, but they always do,
