Oh well Kelly bad news I've started so you'll have to live with the changes. Linda I got a spare 10 minutes and managed a little landscaping in mine too

Any suggestions for improvement glady welcomed

pete

you are spoiling stells

now pete how do you intend keeping your tropical house warm and humid

Henry-flash · 28-11-2006, 07:53 PM

Well Linda my book covers a few ways of heating, just need to have a look into those first. As for humidity I plan to use recycled rainwater with a sprinkler system and again I'm looking into this method.

Thanks for the pressie Linda. Your chairs look nice - wouldn't mind some myself.

pete i am hoping some sensible facts will come our way

whilst i was researching i came across a great looking and very efficient heater
