A Pleasant Surprise At The Polytunnel.


Fixed Polytunnel.


 I got home one night last week from work and I was informed that my good lady wife had managed to do a Macgyver fix on 'Portugal' my beloved polytunnel cover.  Click on the photo to see the incredible fix!

Apparently she got some polytunnel tape that we bought in Aldi and a couple of strong  polythene bags we use for the recycling still joined together and managed to patch the tear in the cover.

Oh am I an happy bunny.  We have had some incredible more strong winds the last few days and it's still intact,  thankfully! "

Oh happy days when my polytunnel blues went away."

My carrots have germinated and the onions are growing and I repotted my friend the Yucca plant.  The polytunnel plant residents are very happy again and so am I. 

Have a great weekend.

  9. When a woman fixes the polythene on her husband's polytunnel - that is true love. Now what will you do in return? Perhaps a striptease like those blokes in "The Full Monty".

  10. I agree Briony. My garden office/polytunnel keeps me out of the house.
