Photo of Our First Allotment!

It looks great! I remember the excitement when i first got mine last may... complete with 3 massive artichoke plants! I asked a friend how to cook them and her reply was...

"Put the artichoke heads in a pan of water, add a house brick, bring to the boil and simmer for 3 hours, remove the artichokes and eat the brick!"

Not sure i fancied them much after that and particularly not when harvest time came and they were covered in thousands of aphids!!

Needless to say i didn't eat them but ripped 2 up and skipped them. There is still 1 remaining which i'm gonna get rid of, so if you're interested Rhona - it's yours! (I am a bit far away but will be in Nottingham mid Feb if you would like it...)

Wow Rhona, what a great site!! Good luck with it all, many happy hours ahead I foresee. And I echo those who said take lots more photos - I took a few when I got mine just a year ago and its great even so soon now to look back and see how far I've come, gives me the incentive to keep going.

Keep us updated on what you're up to won't you?!

I want a camping stove for my plot, where's the best place to get one?????[/QUOTE] MrsC2B

Amazon is the place to look. I got one from there and 4 butane bottles, cost under £20 for the lot including P&P
