Many thanks guys for the welcomes etc. I will attach some photos of my mistress, sorry my allotments!
(By the way I do call my allotments my mistress as it's hard work but rewarding!)
Have a fab Christmas, hope the big fat red man brings what we need for our plots.

Hello and welome from another happy skip-diver (although it is much harder here as the French already seem to keep, make do and mend, well round these parts anyway)!
Enjoy the Vine

Hello, I am glad that you and yours have joined us. Like you many of us grow on a tight budget so any tips and ideas we have to share with each other will always be good.

Welcome, even scrap wood and stuff can be knocked up to quite impressive structures, much nicer to look at than plastic or metal sheds in my opinion. Keep up the good work.

Hello and welcome to the vine Kieron, I agree - you can't beat a bit of the outdoors to improve your health and wellbeing! Getting food to the table is the icing on the cake! I love your nickname .
Photos would be lovely.

Unfortunately as I'm sure many plots have, we do have one or two holders who we nickname the Clipboard Police who make a point of going around and tutting and huffing at other plots. Even had one of the guys measure my large shed to ensure its not breaching the permitted sizes. However I don't give a damn and just let it ride over me as the majority of the holders are fab guys and support each other when needed and leave each other alone to how we do it.

Originally posted by Kieron75 View PostBill has MS and I have mental health issues and find our allotment a big part of our life therapy and it's true what they say, the soil is good for the soul. We have made loads of raised beds to keep the workload down as much as we can, even made our large shed and pollytunnel out of scrap wood etc. Our rule for the allotment is everything must be free or under £5 in total. Hence I'm nicknamed Magpie by my beautiful wife Stephy. Skip diving is a must!
