Just to add to this ALID have the 210 ltr ones on sale (from 7th March) with stand and all the fittings.
I bought 3 of these a few years ago (2 for the shed at the allotment) and they are still going strong.

I have just replaced some bulbs in the kitchen (reflector type) with halogen ones which are a kind of half way bulb ie 42w = old 60w and just as bright. I had previously tried low energy ones in the kitchen but they were very dull and slow to even become dull, so I was very pleased that the halogen ...

Thanks for the seed site recommendation Jannie.
It looks really good with lots of heritage varieties.
I will be putting my order in soon.

Offer on in DASA at present 3 packs of Johnston's seeds for £4. This is an okay offer as most packs cost £1.99 each but the best bit is that amongst the seeds there are packs of 6 different Tomato or sweet and hot peppers (all packed seperately within the packs), these are normaly £3.99 each per pac...

Hi Spudley, I'm with the others! Please keep going. Have just found this thread and have total respect for you.
