Helloooooo from Cornwall
Hello all, my name's Windy. Passionate (but haphazard) gardener, mum to 3 spawns, 2 cats and a Chameleon named after a serial killer. Slightly warped, overworked, often stressed, happiest with bum in air and hands in soil
Been gardening for years but only started with veg 2 years ago....with rubbish results so far
Blight, slugs, snails, rubbish soil, gale force winds ( I specialise in horizontal onions
) But am I downhearted?? No!! Currently in the process of diggin up me front garden for more veg..a la Good Life. Think I look more like Tom than Barbara...where did I put those denim dungarees? 
It's funny how such a ruthless and sadistic maniac such as Vyvyan should care for a Begonia.

Re: Helloooooo from Cornwall
Thanks for the great welcome guys
Well he's called The Son of Sam but we affectionately refer to him as 'the lizard' (I wanted to call him Ted Bundy but was outvoted by the spawns
So I'm savin that name for whatever decides to live with us next...the spawns should think they had a lucky escape when I named em
)
Here he is in all his grumpy glory....
He's the love of my life...well, after Mr.Merlot

Re: Helloooooo from Cornwall
He's 16 months old now...I got him when he was 5weeks and 2-3" long. Now he's around a foot long nose to end of tail and can shoot a cricket with his tongue about 8" away
He likes to come out of his viv and climb about the lounge and can often be found on the curtain pole
