Now have a new plottee - ME !

However their waiting list has grown from 21 when I first joined it, to over 40 now !

Quite a few untended plots though which is sad. Two of the vacant ones offered to me were a wonderful size but needed so much clearing and work doing that I just couldn't invest the time and energy needed (so I took a much smaller one that will be a breeze).

I wouldn't have minded if it was just weed clearing, but plenty of glass and other nasties which meant i'd have spent all this season preparing.

BlOOdy awful day out there today, and not even me in my "desperate to get going" state could possibly consider getting up there today.

Alice, i think "HE" heard you ........... I can see patches of blue sky this morning and the sun even poked out for 5 mins.

but just been out to fill the feeders and the wind is still a bit chilly but the lilies and the broad beans are hanging on in there, bless them.

I really must have a look in the garden today as i've not even been in the g/h for a couple of days, there must be side-shoots taking over lol.
