hilarious mend!
yes,
sellotape down the side of the zip and soon realised that wouldnt do. got the roll of plastic, originally bought in woodies to cover mega area in garden to protect some furniture there when i moved before (never throw out anything!) and cut a large bit off. laid it on the floor. reinforced it with brown packing tape (no that wont last once rain comes, i know), then taped on three large pieces of garden twine top, middle and end. stuck onto the side of the lidl frame in garden and brought around to the front, and on the opposite side of the frame i had stuck more string, top, middle and end, so i brought both pieces together, top middle and end and tied in neat bows, top middle and end yes, pro, no! lets see.... |

I've been told that Lydls are now selling the plastic cover for the greenhouse for €20 each. Marhen
