I've been inside mine all day - very hot = jacket off!!!!! Digging and sorting the soil out and weeding. Making a wooden frame inside it to start tying stuff to when the time comes. Putting popped footballs over the wooden frame edges to stop the cover rubbing on the frame. Putting in a little path up the middle = heavenly!
You may say I'm a dreamer... But I'm not the only one...
I'm an official nutter - an official 'cropper' of a nutter! I am sooooo pleased to be a cropper! Hurrah!
I prepared my beds today & marked out where it will sit just to give me an idea of the size. Have got a few ideas in mind how to anchor it down & make timber door frames so we'll just have to wing it & see how it goes.

There is something that's puzzling me and I'll ask it here since we're talking polytunnels. Its about the greeny plastic covers. If, as everyone says, after a year or two the "squares" fall out, why do the manufacturers keep using this stuff? Is it so much cheaper than ordinary clear plastic? I really don't understand it - and I'd like to
Look what they have at our local community garden. That looks about my size!...Seems to have a bent willow framework. A mini polytunnel............watch this space
