We've got a lotty - nearly
« on: March 08, 2011, 19:34 »
We have been offered a lotty and have said YES of course  ;) so it will be ours as soon as we can get the paperwork done.



Ours is the one centre plot, that has already been nicknamed "The Thimble"

It was only given up about 4 or 5 weeks ago as the previous owner has been given another plot at the side of the one he already has.

Spoke to him at the weekend and he tells us that it has been well manured, so we don't have a vast amount to do before we can start planting.

We is well chuffed.

I wish  :D, google maps and multimap is your friend.

Yes we fell VERY lucky the other 3 plots that we were offered as well (to choose from) haven't been touched for 2 years and are in a right mess as you can imagine.

We actually chose our plot without actually seeing it, when SWMBO said there are four to choose from which one do you want I just said "oh lets have that one". Boy were we pleased  :D :D

Very few people can take on such a clean plot. You've done very well for yourself.
