Hi Paul, its from first tunnels....but we got it off Ebay mate. Its 14 x 30 The guy put it up and it was too big for his garden... so it was only one month old. I payed £300 for it
 the good thing about it is how high it is at the sides you can walk next to the sides with out bending over...here is the link

 I love that - no messing about with dodgy old sheds, cloches and scarecrows with knit ware! Drive in a digger, level the lot and whack up a bleedin great big polytunnel  You'll be supplying supermarkets this time next year |

Great job, spanking new fence as well, you must be in the trade or know your stuff anyway
and that's what I call an allotment, your lucky to get a window box around here. So forget the old bath when is the mains irrigation system going in |

The plot next door has a water supply
i'll be taping into that line and running my own off it for the irrigation system
your spot on on the fencing do it everyday so easy for me to put one on the allotment...only took me about 90 mins to erect it  some of the guys on there have got 2 or 3 times the size of mine...the ones that have been there for years NEVER TAKE LIFE SERIOUSLY. NOBODY GETS OUT ALIVE ANYWAY |

Nice job Feteke,
I'm growing my first tomatos this year. I know its not much but I used to laugh a Father and all his vegatables. Never thought I be tending to my own veggies, but have to say I'm really looking forward to Beef Toms with Mozzorella! Good on you chap. 2008 110 XS CSW Stornoway Grey |
