  Hi Darren
  
  Best of luck, I have just started myself and I am loving every minute of it. Just a keen amateur gardener myself but can also put my hand to a host of DIY jobs so hope to get plenty of work, especially inside, over the winter months.
  
  Have you thought of getting yourself on the local Age Concern list, well worth contacting them. If you want more info on this let me know
  
  Best wishes
  
  Paul
