  • Have been lurking for ages

    so thought I had better say Hi!

    Im West Wales, would love an allotment as dont have a very big garden, but none here & our council have been extremely stalling, so our society has just folded after 4 years of trying to get one up & running very very sad

    I keep chickens, quail & not for long a couple of ducks. We do eat our own sometimes, but are mainly for eggs & showing. We did have a veggie patch, but chooks have taken it over & the greenhouse, so am looking to you all for inspiration to get things back on track (OH says pretty please xx)

    Welcome to the vine Scorpius, glad you decided to stop lurking & took the plunge. We have a few Welsh grapes (they tend to stand out a little so you won't miss them........) & they maybe able to help with sites in your area. I'm sure you are already aware there is a great section dedicated to chooks.......Good luck.

      Croeso Scorpius. I spend half my time in West Wales and we've been trying to find land for allotments too - without success. Are you in Carmarthenshire?
      Glad you've come out of lurkdom to join us - we're a happy bunch

                        BAH !

                        I can't. I've a plasterer booked in to re-plaster my living room. If I'd have known before hand (or paid attention, as I've just seen your other thread about it) I'd have come. Damn, that's a shame! Could have even carted some stuff up your steps on the way back
