hi every one well bit of back story about me i had a 30x12 greenhouse that i rebuilt and a 160ft x 30 plot and i used to grow and sell plants
but in 2014 mum had a heartattak and didnt make it 4 moths later dad died
and i became a fall time carer for my sister who has mental illness the place i was living at the time that we had lived at for 10 years had problems due to a nasty landlord and he used the death of my Parents and evicted me and my sister i lost all my plants pots everything i had built over time
so we moved to a new house and im starting again i just put up a 20ft x 10 cheap polly and i have made a youtube channel on my trials
hardest part is getting back all that i lost as i cant work anymore due to my sister but im trying
sorry for the downer post

Welcome - what a shame poor you and your Sister - no need for apology that's a very hard time you both had to face - yes my friend there are some cruel people around that have no care for others - but there are plenty people on here who are just the opposite. It's great that your starting again - shows real courage. With time you'll get everything just the way you want it - good luck!

Hmmm... does anybody know... can we embed youtube links in this forum, in the same way that we can with pictures ? you can put video/You Tube links in Roofy, when you click on reply on the top line there is a clapperboard symbol which if you click lets you insert your link if that's what you mean, it shows which video sites it enables. |

Welcome...... that makes five of us in South Wales, now.
Adversity makes us who we are, and your fortitude does you credit and it's no surprise that you are a gardener.
Let's hope this season is kinder to you and your sister than the last one was.
Good Luck with your new polytunnel. |
