    It was lovely seing your allotments so tidy!! how on earth do you keep them so neat!!i used to grow vegetables but mine were definately not neat..and mine used to get eaten by slugs ..snails..birds..so i gave up...yours look untouched!!i have allways thought of having an allotment but it looks time consuming..you definately wouldnt want me on the next allotment to you!!as you would get over run with seedlings that have escaped from mine... :D

    Hi Plotty.Welcome and could you please reveal how you manage to keep your plot weed free?
    Are you down on your hands and knees 24-7?
    If you have any spare time...Only kidding.

    Nice to see you have what I would call pefect soil!!
    I shall enjoy reading your allotment notes.

    Agree with Strongy's comments! We'll definitely be expecting you to answer questions, and not ask all that many - unless some of us convert you to using some of that massive area for less edible plants! :D
