Hello there!

Post: # 210465Post gregorach »

Hi everybody!

Been reading occasionally for a while, finally joined up because I'm looking for some advice about root cellar construction (specific post coming soon). I'm an allotmenteer in Edinburgh (Saughton Mains if there are any other Edinburgh allotment types reading), a keen craft (not home :icon_smile: ) brewer and occasional winemaker, plus I play a few musical instruments from time to time... Just thought it polite to say "Hi!" before I start picking people's brains!

Hi! :wave:
Cheers

Dunc

Hey Fi! Sorry I missed your housewarming... I'll be trying to get up your way at some point in the next few weeks, since it's been ages since I've seen either you and Richard or Chris and Seonaid... Hopefully might be able to see you all in one trip. Yup, it's a small world alright! Hope all is well.

Thanks for the welcome everybody. :icon_smile:
Cheers

Hi there and welcome :wave:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
