As you say there's not much I can do (except use some of the garage for storage once it's up :-) ).<br /><br />Mrs Thrifty - I just get on with things, if you think about them it always seems much more work than just doing it!!<br /><br />Deco - It is a bigger greenhouse than usual, normal width but twice as long, you can put an additional door half way down to keep one end warmer, but I'll leave it as it is. The lady that used to garden here held the national collection of fushchias I've been told, and had lots of different types of greenhouses for different stages of development, this is the last surviving one, her ashes were scattered somewhere on our land just before we moved in - I wish I knew where, I would plant a fuschia there if I did!<br /><br />Sue xxSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04177854521955532744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-66161260153236488732012-04-15T10:26:18.570+01:002012-04-15T10:26:18.570+01:00That greenhouse looks HUGE!

I'm concerned about that garage though, won't it put your greenhouse in the shade?
