    Get a shed big enough to do seed sowing and potting in.

     Bung half the stuff from the greenhouse outside to get watered and stay nice and dry myself in the greenhouse potting on and planting up baskets - that's what I'll be doing with all the rain we've been forecasted for this week.

    Yep, same here, Sue. I also put out houseplants for a good wash as they can get quite dusty. As long as you remember to bring them straight back in once the rain stops and the sun comes out, so they don't get scorched, it does them good.

    Thank goodnes I read this  - I've just realised I still have a house plant outside ( at 9.45 pm) - I'm off to rescue it now - hopefully it will be lovely and fresh if a little chilly!

     In answer to the original question I do the housework as when it's raining is the only time it'll get done! Embarrassed
