If the Vine was a real place, what would it look like?
Ive never thought of it as a place, just a bunch of mates you catch up regularly, ask far help when youre stumped and have a really good moan with when things get on top of you.
Mind you after Grapestock theres a whole bunch of us who will forever see it as a field near Skipton
Anyone who says nothing is impossible has never tried slamming a revolving door
Never imagined the Vine as a place but do imagine how people look like. But as you are asking I think the Vine is a comfy warm place, lots of sofas and chairs. Plus a wood burning stove and tea, coffee and cakes a plenty. There would be an enormous conservatory, filled with loads of seedlings (well the greenhouses and polyunnels are filled to the brim). Chooks and piggies are happy outside.
It's a giant potting/allotment shed! Crammed with lots of old but comfy sofas and chairs, seedlings in pots by windows, packets of seed to riffle through, kettle on the boil, little log burner to keep us all warm ...
Doesn't matter whether you're wearing wellies or waterproofs, everyone is sat down having a chat, dogs laid in front of the log burner. Occasionally someone will get up and go, and their chair will be taken by another person, or we'll have to bring the emergency chairs in, but everyone is friendly and chatty
A Big allotment with lots of raised beds, rickety old shed's, old white green houses with little chimneys with puffs of smoke sticking out the top, the waft of fresh turned soil with spring birds singing and flying in to pinch a worm or two, where young and old would compare there packed lunch, swap a sandwich or cake with each other over a nice cuppa, were mum's and dad's would fetch there little ones while they planted this years seeds, the sun would be out and would warm your back as you knelt to plant potato's, onions and late spring bulbs, where hours passed by like minute's and everyone had a smile for each other. And at the end of the day you looked forward to visiting again .
