Hi everyone

Thank you for all your feedback. I have decided to go ahead and take on an allotment.

I grew some veg in pots last year so have already got the 'grow your own' bug. Unfortunately, my husband didn't pick up the bug and is going to think I'm insane when I tell him of my decision. He isn't into vegetables but the kids enjoy them and my eldest even started to eat different veg last year because it was home grow. Hopefully, my husband might get the bug too but at least he can look after the kids in the evening and weekends.

I contacted my local council and the good news is there are 3 allotments in my local area but the bad news is that there are 20 people on the waiting list some of which have been waiting a few years. So, I guess I won't be getting a plot anytime soon.

Take care
