Default Hi From Jack

Hi to everyone, I am Jack from Swansea, I am sorry I won't be able to share any info on gardening with anyone because I don't have any but I am really looking forward to learning from you all. Don't beat me up fore this lol, I don't have a garden or a lot of space but I intend to use 3, 4 x 4 foot square gardens to organicly grow vegtables for my family.
My Grandfather God bless him, would be really proud of me because he used to have a wonderful garden full of veg at different times of the year and this always brings a smile to my face, when the garden peas he planted were ready to be picked, he would let me eat them straight from their pods.
Cheers

Welcome Jack I guess many of us started off this way just remember;

From little acorns great oaks do grow!

So ask away and make my day!

ps. Just re-read this post and notice I'm a bit of a poet and didn't know it.

Thanks LJ and TG, I just saw and read an entry by Hollie, I was inspirational to a complete novice like myself and If i could get a smallish percentage of success, I would be so happy. Cheers

I get the feeling here that you are going to get prices of timber!

Here is a thought for you; Check up on the price of upvc facia boards against timber, I guess you may find it more expensive but in the long term it may work out cheaper...........it doesn't rot like timber!!

TG, You were right, I was going to get prices of used scaffold boards but I do have 2 packs of soffit fascia to use. Cheers
