Bit long winded this but stick with it...........I used to work at a pub and an old bloke who had an allotment was a regular.

He used to lend me his keys so i could pick brambles for wine making and I mentioned this to another girl I worked with and she suggested us getting an allotment.

Two years later we have got it ship shape and hope to be getting rewards this yea.

Hence Bramble Lover

I used to live in a very beautiful part of northern Poland, where people from the southern industrial cities would go on their holidays, known as 'Zielona Putze' - the Green Lung.

Didn't think I'd use this scary tinternet wotsit much, thought I'd be here once in a bluemoon. Seems they have bluemoons just about every day now.
