Tea break

Now and then I suffer with back trouble, So four years ago I raised both my GH borders on steel frames. I grow most of my salads on it.

21 Oct, 2009

 

Really ?
Heron ...... you cheeky chappie ;-)

21 Oct, 2009

 

Yes...I saw this pic "elsewhere"...a couple of years ago...Sorry Heron....you have been "rumbled"....he.he.he -))

21 Oct, 2009

 

Aha, must have missed that one "elsewhere" at the time ;-)
So how many years on are we now Heron ? ;-)

Awww, aren't we mean for teasing him Alice :-/

21 Oct, 2009

 

That's a good idea. I try not to put things too low aswell.

21 Oct, 2009

 

Very clever, labelling everything for us. :-)

21 Oct, 2009

 

WoW! well done u it looks fab :)

21 Oct, 2009

 

He can take it Louise..Dare say he will "try" and get his own back........lol

21 Oct, 2009

 

Looks great Heron even if you have been rumbled!!

Grand idea for folk who don't like or can't bend.

21 Oct, 2009

 

Well Anblealice and Louise, I might have known you two would tease me on that. It just happened to be the only one I could find. Have I aged over the last two years, well I don't feel as if I have but ........wait for it.......I have lost two stone since it was taken, unlike others who haven't the willpower that us blokes have. (W) is for wink.

21 Oct, 2009

 

Must have been eating all those healthy salad crops! (ssshhh! stones and greenhouses don't go well together). Incidentally, have for long wondered how to depict a "wink" using a keyboard?

21 Oct, 2009

 

so I reckon we'll have to definately have an updated photo now heron

21 Oct, 2009

 

Glad to see you have got your priorities right Heron......T in hand everything else within elbow reach...........

21 Oct, 2009

21 Oct, 2009

 

I haven't got a recent pic as I'm usually the the one behind the camera.(S)

22 Oct, 2009

 

no excuses now, I'm sure Mrs Heron would oblige ;))))))

22 Oct, 2009

 

Oh alright then, this was taken this summer. I trust you'll do likewise.

22 Oct, 2009

 

Ooh, now !
Grindle ?? Your turn !!!

22 Oct, 2009

 

I'm lost, isn't Heron Heron?

22 Oct, 2009

 

Sorry Bornagain, did i mislead you ?
I've just altered my last remark :-/

22 Oct, 2009

 

No louise, Amblealice has seen this pic elsewhere a couple of years ago, he's been rumbled???????? I thought of all possibilities, is it Prince Charles in disguise?lol :-)

22 Oct, 2009

 

Hmmm....I seem to recognise our Heron too....;)

22 Oct, 2009

 

Ooooh who is he, was my guess right? :-)

22 Oct, 2009

 

Through the key hole I reckon

22 Oct, 2009

 

Lol....my lips are sealed Bornagain....;)

22 Oct, 2009

 

Aaaaaargh and other cries of frustration!!!

22 Oct, 2009

I have only one weakness these days, my back. I did serious damage years ago when attempting to lift too much. Every few years it gives me jip so the raised beds mean I can at least do something. It's great for salads,carrots. I've got some Dianthus in there at the mo, still picking them for the house.

15 Nov, 2009

 

did the same to mine years ago..flares up now and again. but im lucky its good most of the time. i been picking tomatoes in mine today....

15 Nov, 2009

That is brilliant - wish we had a nice greenhouse but the room in garden has gone now.

For me this was like a blast from the past and how kind to have these photos on GoY still :-)
ive sat reading all the comments this morning and looking through your gardening photos thinking how wonderful life is for us all if only we (as you and Goy members have) spent the time to get our hands dirty!
Very positive of you to keep on even with a bad back!
All in your green house looks/looked very tasty a happy family no doubt!
