Hi from sunny france
Just wanted to say Hi to everyone, Im new to gardening, my mother was a keen gardener but i always hated it, then I moved to France and I saw how quick things grow here (Im from up north so veggies dont grow that well)
Last year we started a small veggie garden, didnt get much done as we had a lot to do renovating this place but the results were fantastic, so this year its already 5 times bigger, not bad for a newbie, but I must admit I would be lost without the internet

Good luck to you!
Where is your new French home? I'm French myself, from Vendee (nearest famous town: La Rochelle). Many people like their gardens over there but I think british gardens often look much nicer and neater. So with your british genes and the french climate, I'm sure you'll do marvels!

Thanks Little Tom, we are in the Deux-Sevres, near Bressuire, about 2hrs from La Rochelle.
I must admit Im a bit of a neat freak I cant help but grow full rows, even with veg we dont use a lot off

thanks for the warm welcome guys, sorry Matrix, I wasn't knocking "up north" I'm very proud of my roots
It just seemed like everyone I knew found it hard work, here it seems most things grow like mad with very little effort.
