Hello and welcome to the vine

Hello Mrs 10a and welcome to the Grapevine aka Madhouse.

Pull up a chair and make yourself at home. Sorry about your hands but they'll toughen up and become wrinkled, muddied and calloused like mine

Any plot photos? Its good to take some at the start, then you can look back on them and see how much you've achieved.
Any questions - just ask!

Welcome to the Vine Mrs., I'm sure you will enjoy! You are a glutton for punishment...allotment and 3 babies!!! Respect!

Hi and welcome to the vine

You sound like you need an allotment to keep you busy

When did you get your lottie and what sort of state is it in. Sorry, silly question are you due to have a 3rd or planning to have a 3rd? either way make sure you stay safe and have help.

I found out I was pregnant just as I got my lottie (I am now a back garden grower). One morning I lost my balance and I was not only stuck on the floor for a while, but the only one on the entire site

Making sure you has somewhere to rest is a great help.

There is loads of help and advice here and feel free to ask away no matter how daft it may seem. I don't think anyone bites

Hello Mrs & welcome to the Jungle, I take it 10a is your plot number. Not sure what to congratulate you on, the plot or the bairns...............anyways, good luck on both counts & watch out for the nutters, unfortunately they don't lock them up on a night.......................

Hello and welcome...

You will get many years of enjoyment from your allotment if not your kids

**bramble** · 13-01-2016, 05:49 PM

Hi and welcome on here. Have you any plans on what you want to grow yet. Make a list of all the foods you want to grow and take it from there. Hope you enjoy the experience. Good luck with kids and the plot, I am sure they will love helping.

Hello there and welcome to the Vine. We love pics of other people's gardens and plots

**Knight of Albion** · 14-01-2016, 12:24 AM

A very warm welcome to the forum, dear soul

**Lumpy** · 14-01-2016, 09:43 AM

Hello Mrs - welcome to the Vine.

How exciting ...........new veggies you have grown yourself and new babies.
As you are new to all this my advice is - chill, stay calm and don't panic over sowing dates, varieties etc etc.

As VC said sit in a chair for a few hours and have a read as you can mix the serious growing threads with the daft as a box of frogs funny threads.

Oh yes we REALLY love pics

Hello and welcome from the Pyrenees, but once upon a time in Devon.
Enjoy your growing and remember it should be fun so don't get downhearted if the pests eat all your hard work

And don't forget the pics ... :0

Welcome to the Vine. You are braver than I was in taking on an allotment with small children. I waited til my youngest was at school before taking the plunge.
I am intrigued by you saying you are an new allotment "owner". Is it on a private site where plots are bought and sold? My site is a council run one so I am a tenant.
Soon be time to get planting! Enjoy your plot.
