Yes I saw you'd put it ready for the winter ... I also have one the same, it fits in a corner and I'm thinking of putting it inside the new one

The plants are all waiting to go in for the winter seaburn and I'm hoping it will all be done before the clocks go back.

Good to know the work is coming along quickly, Eli!

I didn't know you had one of these little plastic greenhouse as well!

Well here is another picture of mine today. It's taken from outside but as I had my hands full it was difficult to take the photo & I didn't realize till I opened it to put the caption on it that one of the strings had cut the photo almost in half! Perhaps another day I'll get a better one!

My greenhouse is finished ... well nearly. The walls inside need painting and outside need rendering but that will all be done in the spring.
I'm also going to have a light and electric socket in there before the spring I hope.
It is surrounded by a mess created when my kitchen extension was being built in the summer, so you'll have to ignore all that.

Here's the front, with a weird reflection

The side looks into an old shelter which I used for potting but it will be demolished soon, and then the sun will be able to shine through the window when the spring comes :-

Inside is crammed with cacti and succulents, and some other overwintering things ...

Thank you grindle, it is attached to a new kitchen extension with the same windows, and I thought different windows would look daft.
I wanted single glazed ones but after pricing them with different companies the builder told me double glazed windows were actually cheaper than single glazed. I thought that was strange, but it is true.
