After only 2 months wait we have a plot! We also have a lovely assortment of old shoes, Drinks cans mounted on canes,  brambles, dandelion, couch etc that we are willing to let go free to a good home.   :lol:

Lots of work ahead, but I can't wait!


By the way what are the drinks cans for?

Hi Markus
Which site are you on in lovely E17?
I had what seemed to be an entire chipboard kitchen rotting away on my plot when I got it - took ages to drag it all down to the skip. Drinks cans may be a bit easier.
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

Haha, yeah, I guess we're lucky then!

The plot's on the higham Hill Common site, everyone there seems really friendly, especially Tilly the squirrel who we met in the site shop yesterday.

I'm at Markhouse Common, off Queens Road. Unbelievably mixed bunch of people. Everyone is pretty friendly - one of the old fellas came to offer to help fix my greenhouse today. Most people help eachother - and then moan a lot. I think that's a characteristic of old blokes in general, whatever their nationality.
Good luck anyway.

Drinks cans are to stop you poking your eyes out when you bend near a cane posh people use corks!

Ah, it looks nice down there, that was the site that originally inspired us to get an allotment when lived over that side of walthamstow.
