Ahoy-hoy from East Finchley!

Hi All,

I've been reading this forum for ages and have finally decided to join. I got my first allotment at the start of October and am over the moon with it! Grew tomatoes and leeks in pots last year and am very much looking forward to the challenge of doing it on a grander scale this year! Roll on the springtime!

welcome to the vine, hope you enjoy it here.

Thank you BrideXIII, I hope I can be as much a help to all of you as you have been already! This is me and my boyfriend on the plot. Note the hellish grass and weeds! Its going to be an excellently challenging year!

We do have a little greenhouse and shed though which are fantastic!

[BrideXIII]

well i envy your your weeds and grass

I have no doubt it won't look like that for long, enjoy getting it ready for spring planting and keep us all up to date with pics.

Welcome Magz and good luck with your carrots. Just remember "patience"!!

Ha ha, thanks Bobleponge. Hopefully that's something I can learn, I'm getting stupidly tempted to plant stuff right now!
