I love allotments, good luck with it LT. I can see you sat there in the shed with a little camp stove brewing up tea..or is that me?

that may be you Bob as the shed is so small i wouldn't fit in it, and we have to share is with the vampire plot holder attached to us (that's what they call him anyway as he never opens his curtains apparently. That or the fact that he goes up only once a year, which is only slightly worse than us at the moment.

Ah i have a cunning plan then, as i am currently thinking my shed is a tad too large for the garden, so i get a smaller one and then .. get me an allotment so i can set it up all *proper like* Where i can sit and have tea and ruminate on the world.. i would do so now, but it is full of shed c**p so needs to be cleared out.
Then i would have to invite El, so she can help me identify weeds..:cool::rotfl:

But El's gonna help me with my plot!!!!
if you get yourself on an allotment list you'll probably have a few years to clear out the shed before it needs to be moved. We were on the list 2 years i think, and currently our waiting list is 15 people long. We've about 30 plots and loads of folk up there have been there since it was moved to that location about 14 years ago, some were even at the allotments when they were in their old location.

Ours is way too long TBH, but i spotted a new allotment within ambling distance up the canal and next door to a pub..absolutely perfect.:D
