Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.
Which one are you and is it how you want to be?Comment

Mine is across the road (and over a big wall, a path and through some trees) from the golf club, and yet still I regularly get their balls turn up, some of them seem to require even more time away from the family for practice as they've gone badly wrong if I've got em.. beyond the rough and into the tomatoes.. :P I'm considering funding my seed habit by selling them back..
I have a dream:
a dream that, one day, chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.Comment

In that case, I'm happy to be a poor golfer My plot is my escape hatch!!

Doesn't really compare to a golf course does it. I think golf spoils a pleasant walk!Comment

Very good and have to agree. I got a plot after quitting the club. And I know where I'd rather be...Originally posted by geoff View Post

What they are inferring as i see it is that the affluent use the golf club as a escape from her indoor's and the working class use the allotment for there escape from her indoor's..Originally posted by Alison View PostDon't see that at all..jacob

Never test the depth of the water with both feet
The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory....
Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

Allotments USED to be the mainly for the working class and unemployed to supplement there meagre wages by growing some of there own food.
Now they are more cosmopolitan!
Golf is a pointless pastime!

Being the "her" in our house, there isn't a her indoors as I'm on the plot so maybe that's why it does make sense to meOriginally posted by jacob marley View PostWhat they are inferring as i see it is that the affluent use the golf club as a escape from her indoor's and the working class use the allotment for there escape from her indoor's....jacob
And before anybody says it, I don't have a him indoors either as he'll be out and about too.
