A bit out in the sticks which is great during the summer madness. Very mild and great for growing most things

It is often easier to advise people on Gardening Matters, if you know which part of the country they live in. This is even more significant for those members living outside of the UK. I realise that some people (myself included) choose to include their location in their profile, but a good number of others do not.

I'm not taking about house number and post code here, but something like North East or South West etc.

It woud also be interesting to see what sort of geographical range of members we actually have.

So to start things off, my home town of Boston is in Lincolnshire, which these days seems to equate to East Midlands.

Time this got bumped up again, we have had loads of new members lately

I'm just 10miles north of Portsmouth and about the same distance from Chichester. Both famous in their own way - one for its sailors and football team!! and the other for the Roman ruins - I'll leave you to work out which. Skarloey will know!!

Hi BB. Petersfield??? No, that's not on the border. Harting area??? I've got to be close, aren't I BB?

I'm in Bordon. (not so bad, the Army's moving out soon). That's in Hampshire but very close to Surrey and West sussex. I used to live in Haslemere, only 7 miles away in Surrey, which strangely, is where I go to work now. When I lived there I worked in Bordon!
