I fixed the cold frame. I don't know if I've mentioned this thing on here before but it was made entirely by hand by me, about 18 months ago, out of wood taken from a skip and a few metres of transparent plastic off a roll. Anyway, the lid tore a month or so ago and the temporary fix with tape blew to tatters in high winds the other week. So I have now in the interests of keeping my more delicate plants alive over the winter spent an hour or two out in the cold but moderately dry -- I've been waiting for a dry day to do this since it bust -- getting covered in spiders and attacked by next door's thorn bush which is encroaching over the fence at head height, and I've fixed it.

Yay. Go me. *collapses in a pathetic huddle now*
