  • Rising from the Ashes

    As many of you know my shed(s) was burnt to the ground a few weeks ago, and although many of you kindly sent me seeds I have been thinking about giving up allotmenting. The expense of replacing all my stuff as well as no where to sit and have a cuppa was also part of my thought process.

    Fast forward to this week and one of the old boys on the site has had to give up due to ill health Good news for me is he wanted the plot to go to someone who will look after it and help the lady on the next plot to his as she is not in the best of health.

    Look at Plot 17N which I am now the proud tenant of......for the price of a cheap new shed, ive got a hand built shed with inbuilt water collection lots of storage and a double greenhouse accessed from the shed - genius. I have found my mojo and cant wait to get started again
