Job done!

In all of our house moves we’ve never inherited a greenhouse. There have been sheds of varying shapes and sizes but not a greenhouse. This week we finished the big build and have our very own at last. The base was completed several weeks ago but the giant Meccano pack was quite a challenge, not to mention my apprehension about all that glass. I needn’t have worried though as the Scandi-style pictograms seemed self explanatory so the structure went up quite quickly. But the glass… gloves were mandatory and working out all the different sizes was tricky but the little clips worked well supporting the upper pieces. Spring clips were so tough. Well, after a couple of cut fingers and three replacement panes bought from our local hardware shop, it’s done! The tomatoes plants are going in today, along with courgettes and peppers. My pot of freesias will creep in too…don’t tell anyone 😉
