How to make my day

 It's dead simple... Buy me four builders buckets and two huge gravel trays...  It's the start of growing season and Tony's just bought them for me... he knows what it takes to make me happy... D'ya think I'm easily pleased.  :-)

For my potatoes

There's  another two under the pergola  waiting to be put to good use

The gravel trays are for growing veggies in the porch... That's one of my three baby avocado trees in the white bin behind the trays. They've really come through the winter well

  1. Blimey, £1 for a big bucket? Where did Tony get them?

    1. B and M but I think B and Q also sell them for £1. So much cheaper than buying big plant pots.

    2. Thanks Cherie, we'll probably get some. In the past we've bought the black buckets used to display flowers in Morrisons, they sell them (or used to, don't know if they still do) at £1 for 8. Husband used them for growing tomatoes in the greenhouse.

  4. Looks awesome. Sometimes I think that it's more fun to be creative than buy something that you 'ought' to use.

    1. The buckets are so much cheaper than plant pots of a similar size.
