28ft by 8ft! Or in “new money” that’s 8.5m by 2.5m wide. In anyone’s language it’s huge. So let’s be honest - without my good friend Simon’s help there is no way I was going to get that ridge section up, or those eave plates - thank you Simon for all your help and hard work. From the base build section (see link above) we completed the greenhouse in the usual 3 days - arriving Wednesday and departing Friday lunchtime.

 Setting out where the greenhouse is going to go. You can just see the battens laid out on the ground marking out the footprint of the greenhouse so we can make sure it’s in exactly the right position before I start.

I have had word from PG Tips that they are expecting a new delivery from China later this week and they should be able to replenish Market Harborough's entire stock of tea bags by the end of next week. Obviously the citizens of MH are upset that they won't be able to get a cuppa until this delivery arrives- given I used up the whole of the town's supply last week- but at least this should avert demonstrations on the streets. looking forward to seeing you later in the month.

Got that date for my return visit – it’s probably not as soon as you were expecting though….so I’ll build up the suspense a little with a list of all the places I’m going to first – so I’ve got to go to Bristol, then West Sussex, then Devon, then Shropshire and then Manchester and then to you ….on the 15th November! Sorry it’s not sooner but it can’t be all fun you know – I do have to do some work for a change as well. Kind regards – and many many thanks for all those hundreds of cups of tea which really got me through all that heat (although I know you only every saw me sitting down!). Robin.
