Low cost gardening?!

Anyone noticed just how dear gardening is becoming? It's mad! I went into my local shop and saw the herbs where on offer ..apparenly at £2.47 a pack..if id bought all i wanted i whould have spent over £60 on seeds alone! i bought a load of ebay and in poundland in the end totalling £9!..baragin, eagerly awaiting spring now to put my guttering herb garden up..you will see what im on about soon lol. Ive also got some living stones growning in my old coffee bags which will look lovely soon ..talking of bargains, i fund this fab site which has really cheap seeds, free packets when you spend over £10, and frost reports! excellent !

VegetableSeeds.net - VegetableSeeds.net offers fantastic value for the highest quality vegetable seeds in the UK. Over 300 varieties with next day shipping.

Recycled garden again

That time of year again! Garden time, Trying to keep my front in keeping with my ethos. I saw some fab recycling ideas on pintrest, heres my take on them, i aquired some 2 litre fizzy bottles from a friend, and spent £7 on plants..although ive got quite a few more ideas to sort through first but i need to wait for warmer weather..ooh hurry up warm weather!

Feeling rather blue that we can't afford a holiday abroad for several years, But i recon i must have had some fab, cheap uk holidays! On one holiday in dorset my son learned to walk, precious moments in time. We allways have a beach holiday and we love norfolk for fishing. I think in a way the current economic climate has meant more local and uk based places of intrest have been given a welcome boost, or at least i hope so! This picture of my grandmother back in the late 40's allways inspires me to make the best of what ever holiday we  can. Walks on the beaches ,donkey rides, exploring local historic places, kiss me quick hats, candyfloss, it may be cheap it may be tacky but my lord we do have the most wonderful happy time together as a family and thats  worth more than any exotic holiday!
